When I look at your backup, I don't see a directory named "mail" in it.

Are you sure that backup is a full backup, containing all of your web files and email?

yes it's a full backup, but only have these files and directories.

./.htaccess ./cgi-bin ./mail ./mail/index.php

that's it.

you can see "homedir.tar" in attached file and untar it.

and check it in public_html.

Hi Jamie -- I'm able to reproduce this problem. It indeed doesn't restore the directory named "mail" within the public_html folder.

Is it perhaps mistakenly thinking that directory is related to email storage?

almost all of my clients got "mail" directory in public_html.

it is serious to me.

I have a fix for this - to apply it, save the file attached to this bug as /usr/libexec/webmin/virtual-server/migration-cpanel.pl , and re-try the migration.

Great - this fix will go into the next Virtualmin release.
