GLPI 10.x to 10.0.5 The following directories should be placed outside

After updating my GLPI server 10.0.2 to 10.0.5 on Ubuntu I see a error message under
Setup -> General -> System

The following directories should be placed outside "/var/www/html/glpi":
‣ "/var/www/html/glpi/files" ("GLPI_VAR_DIR")
‣ "/var/www/html/glpi/config" ("GLPI_CONFIG_DIR")
You can ignore this suggestion if you are certain that these directories are not accessible through your web server.

I assume if I move these folders outside of /var/www/html/glpi/ then GLPI wont work. So there must be a place where you have to set the pointer to the new location. And what location would be recommended?

Hope you can help me...

Hello,

The installation documentation covers this subject.

https://glpi-install.readthedocs.io/en/ … -locations

Essentially, you would need to create a "downstream.php" file in the "inc" folder and define at least the config folder location(GLPI_CONFIG_DIR). Then, in the config folder, you can make a "local_define.php" folder to define any other configuration options/folder locations.
