1. i used step by step the instructions for backup.

2. i transfered with xcloner the backup and the files on the new server.

3. on file manager through cpanel i can see the size of the backup (5.61 gb)

4. i try to use xcloner.php

5. the error: i see the size of the backup as 0.00 mb

6. i try to restore and i have the following error: The database details provided are incorrect and/or empty. Unable to connect to mysql server.

7. i try to choose: choose local clone archive and i have the following error: Could not continue, unable to read the clone backup
file! Please make sure you copied the backup in the same directory as
XCloner.php

8. it is possible to have this kind of error because the back-up is big?

can somebody help me?

 

thank you

 

p.s. i tried also with copying the files tar.php and xcloner.php again but i have the same error.

Could you post a screenshot of your restore location? How exactly was the backup archive transfered to the restore location? if it's new size is 0, then something went wrong, that backup is invalid and you will need to copy it again...
