CRITICAL: Restore from Backup not working

Hi,

We have taken backups from CentOS 5 virtualmin today and reinstalled with CentOS 6 and later back to CentOS 5 due to some issues.

When attempting to restore a domain we get the following:

Warning - the following features were enabled in one or more of the domains in the backup, but are not enabled on this system : Plugin seen, Plugin toks, Plugin logout, Plugin profile, Plugin prefs

Without them, some functions of the restored virtual servers may not work.

Select all. | Invert selection. .bash (Server does not exist, will be re-created) No selected features in backup homes/dena.arstall/.spamassassin/bayes (Server does not exist, will be re-created) No selected features in backup homes/dena.arstall/.spamassassin/user (Server does not exist, will be re-created) No selected features in backup

Any ideas how to fix this please?

Thanks,

Mark

Howdy,

We've seen that error occur in circumstances where what was being restored wasn't actually a Virtualmin backup file.

Is the backup one large file? Or a whole directory of per-domain files?

Also, what is the output of these two commands against the file that generated that error:

file backup.tar.gz
tar tvzf backup.tar.gz

per domain - one file per domain e.g.

[root@localhost backups-orbital]# file wordpress.alantucker.co.uk.tar.gz wordpress.alantucker.co.uk.tar.gz: gzip compressed data, from Unix, last modified: Sun Sep 1 16:57:17 2013

Howdy,

Do you have that second command as well, the 'tar' command?

Also, just to verify -- is that particular backup the only one throwing that error? If so, are you able to restore all the other files?
