[Ala-portal] missing /data/biocache-load directory

[Burke Chih-Jen Ko [GBIF]]

Hi Dave,

I can confirm now the installation including the ansible playbook can be finished without creating the /data/biocache-load in advance. I'll then revise the guide accordingly.

Thanks,

Burke

But, is this directory supposed to be created by the biocache-hub webapp or biocache backend processes, hence it's an issue of the biocache component? If so, then I'll file an issue about this. Or I propose to update the playbook and I can do that.
