Can you share your details? Like cPanel version? How you generated that file etc?

I’ve discovered that I need to create a dns zone first so that the import doesn’t fail.

I’ve created and restored backups from cPanel v100.0.4.

Can you private message me with your cPanel login details. I will have to check the cPanel dump file.

Yes sure, check my pm

How do you solve it?

• I delete the failed created websites ( I ran couple of backups )

Then on dns/createDNSZone I added the domain for the sites i want to migrate.

site1.com && site2.com

But still the same error:

Failed to create DNS records from file /mybackups/backup-11.29.2021_05-53-24_site1.tar.gz, error message: local variable ‘zone’ referenced before assignment.
Failed to create DNS records from file /mybackups/backup-11.30.2021_21-07-43_site2.tar.gz, error message: local variable ‘zone’ referenced before assignment.

It is a clean instalation there is 0 sites in the box.

@Dsousa can you send me the backup file via google drive? Because last time someone sent me a cPanel login and it didnt work.

So I tested on my instance and it works.

@usmannasir Sure, can you pm me so i can send the link privately.

Thanks

@usmannasir How can I share the backup link?

Kindly send me a link in message.

@usmannasir Have you downloaded it?

Resolved it here → bug fix: https://community.cyberpanel.net/t/error-message-local-varia… · usmannasir/cyberpanel@f038ea2 · GitHub

Now use this guide and upgrade CyberPanel → 02 - Upgrading CyberPanel

Let me know if that fixes your issue.

@usmannasir I am very glad to confirm that It does the restore.

But new problem found:

• Now all the html sites ( have not tested wordpress, just plain html ) fails on 404
  http://www.ciypsa.com

• Laravel sites downloads the index.php file
  http://ortodoncia.asosam.xyz

@usmannasir Found the issue. I deleted the sites and run again the migration and I found that the DNS records was not created.

Do you see the files are restored in public_html of the site ?

Yes, files were successfully restored.

Did you install CyberPanel without DNS support?

I did install with DNS support, could the update change that?

How can I validate

I think the DNS file generated by cPanel created an issue. If you host your dns for now on Cloudflare that would do the trick. Checking this may take some time. I will revert to you.

Hello @usmannasir !

I create another account just to ask if I could be upgraded the max replies per day on @Dsousa user

I got this message.

We appreciate your enthusiasm, keep it up! That said, for the safety of our community, you’ve reached the maximum number of replies a new user can create on their first day. Please wait 8 hours and you’ll be able to create more replies.

Thank you.

@nick.chomey could you please check this and do the needful?

Should be better now. I made it 20. FYI @usmannasir and @die2mrw007, there’s A LOT of settings that probably need review - be it to clarify things like this or even just learn what is possible.

Lets discuss and get things correct. I have vast experience in running forums.

Better if you just go ahead and do it. I just made you a moderator and admin. I assume it’s ok with @usmannasir

Hello everyone.

I ended up creating a second server on GCP the free tier VM to test with no migrations, and it is running good.

Tonight 2~3 hours from now. Im going to reset the server to install clean again, and unfortunately set up all the sites & projects manually one by one.

I was using Ubuntu 20.04, and install everything except the remote MySQL

Does the cyberPanel runs better on CentOS than Ubuntu?

I will be more active with reports and replies since I really appreciate this panel and want to help you to keep it cool!

Cyberpanel until now is been tested for ubuntu 20.4 LTS and thus ubuntu 20.4 would be the best one to go with.

If you are a fan of centos, then try almalinux which is a fork of centos8 and maintained by the popular cloudlinux team. Almalinux is been officially supported by Cyberpanel in coming days.

So, you can choose either Ubuntu 20.4 or Almalinux.

And yes, almalinux performs a bit better and faster overall but for newbies, ubuntu would be a better choice because it has great knowledge base around the internet for any issues you face, you will definitely be getting the answer by googling it.
