There are also a whole bunch of check_dir_exists calls for all the
dataroot subdirectories in the check_sanity function in lib/mahara.php.
Maybe import and export should be added in there too, and then none of
this would happen.

Title:
  export_cleanup_old_exports cron causes exception and long-running cron if export directory doesn't exist

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  If export directory doesn't exist (e.g. because no exports have been run), then the cron goes bang.

When the cron goes bang, the lock isn't removed and so the cron can't be run again until the lock expires.

Master on postgres.
