Description of my issue:

Hi - I crashed my site, and tried to restore from an Akeeba Backup which failed, and left the restore script stuck in a loop from which I could not get out.

I then asked my host - Guru - to restore the site from a backup taken a few days ago, which they did, but when I try to access the front end or admin end of the site it still takes me to the restore script in a loop.

I can't see a log file in the Akeeba folder in Administrator.

I do still have ftp access to the site.

The site is https://www.thelakesatrhosamman.wales.

Any idea what I can do?

Thanks

Ian
