Description of my issue:

Had an older version of AkeebaBackup for Joomla installed then got the update message to 6.4.21. Since I am still running old version of PHP wouldn't let me upgrade Professional that I've paid for. So, the core 6.4.0 got installed. Seems that ALICE disappeared after that and now backups will not fully finish. Failed log file attached.

Please advise. Thank you in advance.

Hello,

that's normal. The Core feature is missing several features and downgrading from Pro to Core could cause some issues.
If your PHP version doesn't support the latest version of the Pro version, please take a look at this compatibility page to find the best version for you.

If the info you put in the ticket is correct, with PHP 5.5 you can use the version 6.4.0; remember to install the Pro one and not the Core one.
