Error on restoring Webmin configuration

If you go to Webmin > Webmin > Backup Configuration Files > Restore now, enter the path to local file and click on the "Restore Now" button then it will give:

Restore failed : No modules or other files selected

It seems you need to also indicate the modules to restore, but I believe this step is unnecessary, because the backup file was generated through the same page, so all the modules should be detected and extracted from the backup file automatically.

In theory, yes ... however in the current implementation, the modules to restore do have to be selected.

Selecting all of them will limit the restore to modules actually in the backup.

Well, if selecting all the modules works then it's fine to us, however I believe some day Webmin backup should start working properly without this unnecessary step.

I will change Webmin in the next release to restore all modules by default.
