Hey,

from what i know files starting with a dot (like the .htaccess) are “hidden files” which are not always shown by default in software like file managers, ftp clients or archiving/extracting tools. Could it be possible that you have missed to copy over both hidden files due to them not showing in your used software?

I extracted the owncloud tar file directly into the web server directory using tar xjf file outputdirectory options. Extracting the owncloud installation into the home folder and manually transferring those hidden files resolved the issue.
