I want to restore a ssl website, with admin tools pro installed on it, to a non-ssl domain for testing purpose. But after running the restoration I can't access the front-end and the back-end.
What can I possible do to run the website?

Hello,

most likely your issue is caused by your configuration file.
Please open the configuration.php file and search for the variable $force_ssl. Please change its value to 0.
That should solve your issue.

The problem is solved. I had to make a symlink between public_html and private_html.
