Hi, I am trying to restore a domain. I had the domain in server 2 as a subserver, I deleted it and I am trying to restore it now.
The backup archive taken from server 1 has the domain already converted to a parent domain.
I execute on server 2
/usr/share/webmin/virtual-server/restore-domain.pl --source /backup/virtualmin/testdomain.gr.tar.gz --domain testdomain.gr --feature dir --feature logrotate --feature status --feature unix --feature webalizer --feature webmin --feature virtualmin --feature web --feature ftp --only-features --no-reuid
Checking for missing features ..
.. all features in backup are supported
Starting restore..
Extracting backup archive file ..
.. done
Re-creating virtual server testdomain.gr ..
.. a clash was detected : A unix user called testdomain or group called testdomain already exists
No user or group testdomain in passwd, group and shadow files. userdel, groupdel also says no such user
Is there any other files I should search for remnants, to delete them and retry, I don't know which files are checked by restore-domain.pl.
Could you help cause I am stuck?
Thanks!

Ok, I think I found it
I restored with option --noreuid.
Unfortunately the group id was already taken by another user
I was mislead by the message that said a user or group called testdomain.
No big deal, but if you think it is important, add to the error message sth like "or same user/ group id exists"
Thanks!

Ok, that would explain it.
I will make those messages more accurate in the next Virtualmin release (3.77)
