Followup from Plesk support since this can help future people in the same situation: "When prefix database mismatch was generated, WP-Toolkit detected the WordPress instance as broken, because of that, the restore probably didn't work. Plesk backup would have worked, with the option "Restore...

Plesk support have helped me with this now, and it seems to work! I wonder though, why the WPT Restore didn't work from start? @nmdpa3 : I will definitely take a look at backup extensions, I don't want this to happen again… o_O Thank you guys for your help, highly appreciated!

Thank you for your help Kaspar! I have contacted Plesk and are awaiting their feedback. My feeling is that the solution is very easy for someone that knows everything about Plesk, WP, Linux and mySQL... I am obviously not that person. :rolleyes:o_O

After restoration I got this: And also this in WPT:

Thanks, it might come to that.

The dump is 411 MB . I created an SQL database with same name, user and pw as before and imported the dump. Now I have restarted Plesk (just in case) and I'm currently doing a restore again.

Dump created before I did a Remove Database, then WPT> Restore, after 10 minutes I got this error: …and then this: "WordPress installation www.mysite.com (#26) is not available for current operation because it is broken" Something tells me the restore couldn't restore the database...?

Alright, one more question; If I delete the database, will WP Toolkit remember the user and password when it restores it? If not, how do I solve that? When I'm sure about this I'll just use "Remove Database" in Plesk, no reason to use phpMyAdmin for that, right?

Thanks for the input! Should I take that backup with WP Toolkit, Plesk or manually? And when you say "website files", do you mean everything in the httpdocs directory?

Clarification: When I restore the site with Plesk Backup Manager I was using the Sites option and choosed mysite.com. I am currently in the process of restoring with the Database option as well, since I'm not sure if Sites take that as well.

Short story: The biggest (and most crucial) site on my Plesk installation have crashed. I have tried to restore a backup from yesterday morning, but it fails with "Restoration of the backup April 30, 2024 02:01 AM failed". The log is empty. Long story: mysite.com is a Wordpress installation...

Followup; Reducing the content of the site folder (eg logs, four year old backups etc etc) made the backup work. Thanks for the input!

Thanks for the input Kaspar! The site in total is 19GB… Even if that's much you should be able to take a backup, right? It's a multisite, and I'm not the one that built it, I'm just hosting it. (I could probably remove 18 of those GB but at the moment I just want to have a working copy.) I...

When I try to create a backup of a site with WP Toolkit, it takes a couple of minutes were nothing happens, and then Plesk gives an error. No backup is created. The site itself is quite large. Looking at memory usage during this time gives as per the attachment. I also got a Swap critical error...

Thanks for the input. I really want to use the built in DNS, but I'm afraid of only having one DNS. Maybe another topic, but should I?
