 Hello there,

I'm using Unite 2.0.2 to trigger remote backup and restore it to a local hosting.

It worked fine when using Akeeba 4.x to do that. I've upgraded a site to akeeba for Joomla 5.1.0, and now it fails.

The remote backup process starts, but hangs in "pending" state, with just the name of the 1st archive (see screenshot attached) and nothing written in it.

Is it something you have tried when releasing 5.1.0 ?
and 2nd question, is it OK if I reinstall 4.7.2 version of Akeeka Bakckup, on top of a 5.1.0 ?

Thanksm, and kind regards,
JM Santoni

Thanks Davide and Nicholas,

I see 3.0.0 is released, and will test also new features for restoring other CMS (will have a try with Drupal and Akeeba Solo).

Thanks for this good job.

Hi Davide and Nicholas,

I did 2 tests :

one with Joomla : couple unite 3.0.0 + Akeeba Backup for Joomla 5.1.0 ==> SUCCESS
one with Drupal 7 : couple unite 3.0.0 + Solo pro 1.9.0 ==> FAILED (but not due to unite....)

I've upgraded from solo pro 1.7.1 to 1.9.0, then, from Unite or from the Solo Pro web interface, il leads to the same error : Impossible to connect to MySQL DB (?), and it was working perfectly fine with Solo Pro 1.7.1

So I did all usual checks (passwords, and so on....), until I chose the old mysql connector in Solo Pro, instead of MySQLi one..., and that worked then.

with MySQLi connector, it lead to this error : ERROR |160620 09:10:25|Failed Smart algorithm on Akeeba\Engine\Core\Domain\Db

Do you want me to open a tiket in Solo Pro section ? I can provide you credentials in private then if needed...

Apart of that, many thanks for the great improvements in Unite, it is going to become my universal html/php web sites replicator engine.

Kind regards,
JM Santoni

Hi Davide,
Just checked php settings, it is a server related issue, not Solo.
Sorry about that,

I close the ticket,

Thnaks.
