There is a reason why I tell our clients that “latest” is not a version number. You seem to have used an Akeeba Backup version at least a year old, and are facing a bug which was fixed several months ago.

The newest version of Akeeba Backup we released is 9.9.11. In this version, line 992 of installation/platform/models/joomlasetup.php as referenced in the error message is a comment; it cannot throw an error. The only versions which had code that could throw the error you got in line 992 of the file installation/platform/models/joomlasetup.php are 9.8.1 to 9.8.3, released over a year ago.

The issue you have was fixed in Akeeba Backup 9.9.1 which was released on April 16th, 2024, more than 7 months ago.

Please update Akeeba Backup and take a new backup of your site. If you are unable to do that, please do let me know so I can give you a workaround.
