Hi,

When the installer finishes restoring the backup, the final step goes to a blank page and the configuration.php isn't generated.

In the final step, the installer tries to load Joomla\CMS\Encrypt\Aes. The constant JPATH_PLATFORM is undefined, and then the execution is stopped.

The installer isn't calling the JoomlaDetection getVersion to initialize the JPATH_PLATFORM constant.

If the JPATH_PLATFORM is defined previously at the top of the installation/index.php, the restoration can be completed successfully.

Best Regards,

Anibal

This is a known issue with Joomla 4. I'll be releasing 10.0.1 today.
