Jeena - Back around October 2007, there wasl an issue with the number of users and having to change the directory structure in moodledata which may have been when the make_user_directory function may have been introduced. It sounds like something happened with your installation of Moodle 1.8. I would want to verify that you have the latest versions of the /backup/restorelib.php and the /lib/moodlelib.php file. The latest version for the restorelib.php is 1.218.2.41 and the latest moodlelib.php file is 1.837.2.86. Try opening those files with a text editor and see what versions you have. You may just want to grab the latest 1.8 code and make sure all of the files are installed. Let me know if you have questions but I think this might help resolve your problem. Peace - Anthony
