Joomla! version: 2.5
PHP version: From 5 to 5.3.10
MySQL version: (unknown)
Host: from vista/IIS6 to windows 7/IIS7
Akeeba Backup version which took the backup: core 3.4.1
Kickstart version used to extract the backup: none. zip file method.
Description of my issue:
I've backed up several sites on a windows vista IIS6 configuration using akeeba core 3.4.1. We use the zip method. We're trying to restore them on a windows 7 machine. The Front Ends seem to work well. But when we attempt to log in to the back end we get 404 errors on each site. The site.com/administrator log in screen asks for user/password but when executed it creates the 404.
We then tested our joomla configuration by installing, from scratch, a joomla 2.5 site with all the sample data. it works well. We can get to the admin screen as well.
We've compared permissions on files and folders and don't see any differences.
Both of the following sites were restored using the same akeeba zip method:
Working site: bio.fairfieldpros.com:81
Non-working site: http://fairfieldpros.com:81
I've created an admin account in the fairfieldpros site for you named akeeba with password akeeba
Can you help future out why the non-working site won't allow us into the backend?
