Hi I have one site that I'm having problems restoring the backups to localhost when I'm using Xampp.
I've made a full site backup and can restore that on localhost going to localhost/silversands-resort.com/kickstart.php. Restore it to a new blank database that I've created and called newsilver . The restore process runs through without an issue, until I do the cleanup and then when I click on the visit the sites front end which should then be localhost/silversands-resort.com it takes me to a subdomain of the live site https://silversands-resort.com/en/ . It takes me to https://silversands-resort.com/en/silversands-resort.com instead of localhost/silversands-resort.com.
So I'm guessing there is a setting I either need to change the Backup profile configuration or when I am doing the restore.
If I set the live site in the configuration file in Xampp to public $live_site = '/localhost/silversands-resort.com'; then if I enter localhost/silversands-resort.com it takes me to https://localhost/dashboard/ .
Can you offer any suggestions? So far I haven't tried uninstalling Akeeba and reinstalling it as not sure if that will help, just a bit confused as I've been done the same with other Joomla sites recently as I've been upgrading the Joomla versions of the sites from 4 to 5 on localhost and then making a new backup and restoring that backup to new hosting and not had any issues restoring the other backups to localhost, so not sure what is different with this site, as I thought I'd used the same process and have retried to do it a number of times, but still seem to be getting this error. So any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks
Phil
