Description of my issue:

Hello,

I am trying to use abeekba kickstart to restore my site to my LOCAL host. I have tried using WAMP DEVELOPER and WAMP SERVER (WAMP SERVER currently installed in vmware...i did not install both on the same mahacine, 2 different virtual machines).

I can install a default Joomla installation perfectly fine.

-I am able to retore my site 100% with kickstart, i can navigate the front end of the site perfectly, however when i go to the backend, i enter my username and password and it takes me to a 404 page with/index.php at the end.

I have tried renaming my htaccess file. no luck

I have turend on mod_rewrite

I started with these erros in apache:

I then added a the files/folders above to the directory that it is trying to access them from (i know this isnt right, but I did it just to test)..After I did this, the above errors disappeard, and I get the below errors:

Can someone help me at all, I have no clue whats going wrong, espeically becasue a normal Joomla instllation runs perfect, its only when I do a retsore with abeekba kickstart.

P.S. I have successfully used the akeeba backup .jpa file to restore the site on 2 other hosts, so the backup .jpa file is not brocken or damaged.

Hello John,

As you can see in the error log:

[Tue Jan 15 10:14:10 2013] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function curl_init() in C:\wamp\www\country.com\plugins\payplans\appmanager\appmanager\helper.php on line 258, referer: http://localhost/country.com/administrator/

the problem comes from PayPlans. Actually, the problem that you have is that you have not enabled the cURL PHP extension in your local web server environment. Please refer to WAMPserver's documentation or its forums about the proper way to do that.
