Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? yes
Have I searched the tickets before posting? yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? yes
Joomla! version: Joomla! 1.5.25 Stable
PHP version: 5.2.17
MySQL version: (unknown)
Host: hostgator
Akeeba Backup version which took the backup: latest pro version
Kickstart version used to extract the backup: sept 12. 2011

I may have missed any documentation on my search of the knowledge base, but I need to find out about restoring my website on a cloud server and if Akeeba can be used to do such a restoration. I use akeeba pro to backup my website to a rackspace cloud files server, I have also set up a cloud server and have been successful in it's configuration but not sure how to restore my website or if it can be done with Akeeba pro. I have placed the kick start file and the JPA file in the appropriate var/www/html file but I can't open the front end to get to those files as I have many times when I have my site with hostgator. On my cloud file server I am using centosOS 5.6 and I wonder if the config file my not even work properly?? Any suggestion on getting the information I will need to this process??

Thanks in advance

I'm implementing a process of elimination, I know the server config itself is correct, once configured you have confirmation of it with a link within my rackspace account which displays certain content that confirms it. I also strongly believe that my webmin control panel setup is done properly as well. I might have an issue with how DNS server and how it is pointed from my hostgator account to the rackspace server; I didn't transfer my domain because I'm testing the process at this point, I just changed the DNS server info within Hostgator to the rackspace info. It does not display a 404 error nor a 500 error, it takes me to dlinksearch.com site.

I was trying to determine if the process for restoring my content with Akeeba Pro is the same for a cloud server as it would be for my web host account with is Hostgator which I have successfully accomplished many times. If so, I just eliminated another possibility. Thanks for your assistance!!
