I am using a script called importbuddy.php to restore a WordPress backup to my new dedicated virtual server.
I think problem is, it creates folders as the apache user of the apache group. As a result, I can't seem to change permissions on the folders (even though I am logged in through Plesk as the admin user). I am hosted on MediaTemple.net and I am using their (dv) Dedicated-Virtual server which uses Plesk.
This is an example of the errors that I am getting when I try to run the script:
Error #65656. Unable to put file contents to

How can I just make it so this importer will run and restore my WordPress site?
Instead of using the import script I just FTP'd the files.
