Description of my issue:

Hello.
I have a problem when you restore a backup of a site (joomla 3) with kickstar.php.
it happens that the recovery process is (in a test directories) are not required to configure the MySQL database.
The site relies on the database of the site that I made previously backed up.
Problem never happened before. then I do not understand where the problem arises.
thank you.

During the restore you can simply change the database connection credentials to point to a new database. The restore script guessed that you were restoring your live site and did not clear the backed up database connection information.

If you have finished the restore and both sites are using the same database tables that is bad. Your test site is actually making changes to your live site. In this case you need to restore your test site again and point it to another database (or use a different table prefix) during the restore.
