EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Please attach a ZIP file containing your Akeeba Backup log file in order for us to help you with any backup or restoration issue. If the file is over 2Mb, please upload it on your server and post a link to it.

Description of my issue:

1. I perform a FULL backup of the site - which works 100% successfully. (I split them to 100mb in size post process the files up to dropbox)
2. I then perform a kickstart restore (after copying the .jpa files to the same folder so I'm not 'pulling them from dropbox' during the restore - to another Server and another MySQL DB and it seems to proceed OK HOWEVER - towards the final 'Next' step, I receive the attached error message (capture1.jpg) in the browser
3. In the previous browser tab - I can click the 'Clean Up' button and the site appears to be OK when logging into the backend, BUT - it's not taken the new MySQL db settings I entered during the restore - it's still set as the old MySQL DB???

Please help with the error and also why the MySQL settings are not changing to what I enter during the kickstart restore process?

Thank you.

We released Akeeba Backup 5.2.4 last week which fixes this issue (it's due to some changes in Joomla 3.6.3 and 3.6.4). If you cannot take a new backup please let me know and I'll give you a workaround.

Please note that 2 & 3 are actually the same issue. When you are trying to save the configuration in this step there are several actions taking place. The first action is the one that fails with a fatal PHP error. As a result the rest of the actions, including updating Joomla's global configuration by modifying its configuration.php file, do not run. That's why Joomla still sees the old database information. As I said, this is all fixed if you take a backup with Akeeba Backup 5.2.4.
