I am running X-cloner OK on 2 websites but the 3rd has some kind of problem. When I try to login for the first time it forces the user name to Admin not admin. I've unistalled and reinstalled it a number of times but can't get past this. In addition if I try to clear the cache I get the following error:

  • Failed
    loading XML file
  • /home/leeds176/public_html/administrator/components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/xcloner-backupandrestore.xml
  • XML: failed
    to load external entity
    "/home/leeds176/public_html/administrator/components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/xcloner-backupandrestore.xml"
  • Failed
    loading XML file
  • /home/leeds176/public_html/administrator/components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/xcloner-backupandrestore.xml
  • XML: failed to load external entity
    "/home/leeds176/public_html/administrator/components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/xcloner-backupandrestore.xml"

Can anyone please help?

 

Thanks, Dennis

Hi Dennis, you seem to have an install issue, please delete the following folders manually:

 

administrator/components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/

components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/

 

Once you install again XCloner, check as well that the site php.ini session.save_path option is a valid path so that the login sessions works.

 

Let me know if you have further issues! Ovidiu

Please check your sessions.save_path variable from your server php.ini and make sure it points to a valid writeable path, otherwise sessions won't work and neither the login.
