Description of my issue:
I am having problemd restoring an old(ish) backup to the latest version of xampp. In the first place there were a large number of PHP errors most saying that 'getinstance() should not be called statically'.
I edited the php.ini file to change the error settings which allowed the restore to run however when I try and access the frontend I get a 404 error stating 'Component not found'.
Is there anyway that I can restore this to the current version of xampp. The site has been hacked and I am trying to recover from the last backup that was done. I want to restore it to my local system and then recover it to the Internet after I update it. I intend migrating it to joomla 2.5.
