EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Please attach a ZIP file containing your Akeeba Backup log file in order for us to help you with any backup or restoration issue. If the file is over 2Mb, please upload it on your server and post a link to it.

Description of my issue:
I have backed up my site from local to webserver fine. When doing it back the other way the file won't extract fully and I get the following error message. See screen shot and archive log

Your log is over 2Mb big, that's why it won't attach. As we've written: "If the file is over 2Mb, please upload it on your server and post a link to it."

Anyway, I don't need the log. All you have to do is to use the Akeeba eXtract Wizard to extract the archive locally, as per the Quick Start Guide's instructions. eXtract Wizard will automatically detect filenames not compatible with the Windows filesystem and skip them. Don't worry, these files are usually junk, put in your live site because of an erroneous operation such as a wrong FTP transfer, or an attempt to extract a ZIP archive which didn't end up very well.
