The variable that defined the directory is broken. Has the code been modified?

I have checked this and can not replicate it myself. For whatever reason, the variable $serverfiles is not being defined as it looks blank in the log you posted. Also looking at the header it appears you are not using the latest version of linuxgsm (as I updated with the latest release).

Found out the problem ... it was a sym linked lgsm directory for some reason the installer would not write to it so it contained the old files
