Hi Nikolas,
I am having a rather strange issue which is not very common, I suppose, and as such something you may not have encountered before.
I am currently travelling, and I am staying at a hotel. I have a site I am working on which is almost ready to deploy, but I am having enormous trouble restoring the site from the Akeeba Backup because the hotel's network has a very odd setup in which the public/WAN IP address refreshes every 1-3 seconds. This is really a huge problem, because it appears that the ANGIE script does some IP verification and before I get a chance to progress, I keep getting a notice that the installer is locked and that I need to input my password to unlock it.
Now, I don't even know if I would have this problem if the installer didn't have a password, because I can't seem to save a backup without a password (I have looked at the various tickets and guides regarding this). The configuration password field is empty, and I don't enter a password in the password field at the launch of a new backup. However, the installer claims to be password protected, and entering my normal password does get me to the next screen.
However, that's where the fun starts. Often times, I am unable to extract the database because by the time I click on the start button, the IP has changed and I am asked to unlock to proceed. If, however, I do extract the database, I almost always will be forced to unlock, either on the next step or the one right after it, depending on how fast I get to input any needed data.
Is there any way to disable the IP verification, because I don't know if simply finding a solution to not have the installer password protected will resolve my issue.
FYI, I have a Pro version of both Akeeba for Joomla and kickstart.
