Problem with cloning/restoring joomla 10 Months, 1 Week ago  
Hello,

Let me outline the problem (cause might be the lack of understanding technical English):

First of all, the installation of the clone plugin went good. Everything is working properly and accessible. I am able to generate a backup file.

The problem however rises when I want to transfer (copy) the joomla site including the database. It can be seen as a "mirror site" of the original.

What did I do:
1. Create a new database with new user
2. Create a new folder on webserver
3. Plugin instructions:
create backup, clone, submit details (ftp), start transfer backup --> ok
recovering: submit details (mysql, ftp) --> ok

So far, it seems to work...
However, when I access the new (mirror) site it redirects everything to the first (original) site. Renaming the original folder causes the following error:

------------
Warning: main(/home/dir/public_html/jc1/includes/version.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/dir/public_html/jc2/includes/joomla.php on line 71

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/dir/public_html/jc1/includes/version.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php&#039 in /home/dir/public_html/jc2/includes/joomla.php on line 71
----------------

Further more it seems that the plugin did not use the generated backup, but the actual live version of the joomla site (I made some changes after the backup).

Using the Howto "use Jcloner" (21/03/2007) did not solve any problem.

At last (hopefully) a simple question:
In order to overwrite an original joomla site with an earlier generated backup: do you have to include the "drop table" option as the only necessary item?
