Hi there,
We tried to setup a template website with all the backend configurations we wanted, and installed a few extensions including the latest verion of Admin Tools Pro and Akeeba Backup Pro.
Then we use Akeeba to migrate the website to another server for a new project.
However, we realize that the styles and images all got lost on the new server.
After contacting server support, they were able to fix the problem by renaming the .htaccess file to something else. They also replied:
"
However, it only worked after disabling the .htaccess file.
The issue was causing because of a redirect rule and commented the rule from the .htaccess file and it is mentioned below.
----
##### RewriteEngine enabled - BEGIN
RewriteEngine On ---------------------> commented
##### RewriteEngine enabled - END
# PHP FastCGI fix for HTTP Authorization
#RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
##### RewriteBase set - BEGIN
RewriteBase / ---------------------> commented
##### RewriteBase set - END
##### HTTP to HTTPS redirection
## Since you have enabled HSTS the first redirection rule will instruct the browser to visit the HTTPS version of your
## site. This prevents unsafe redirections through HTTP.
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on [OR] ---------------------> commented
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} =http ---------------------> commented
RewriteRule .* https://example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301] ---------------------> commented

May I know whether this is because of Admin Tools Pro or Akeeba Backup Pro? We don't have this problem for most websites' migration, but we do see this issue a few times when we use Akeeba Backup Pro to migrate the website to certain servers. Is there a specific server setting that is causing the issue?
Thank you very much!
