Plugin Cannot Create Archives
-
Hi,
I have been trying to get this plugin to work for awhile now and cannot seem to get it to work. I am trying to migrate a locally hosted wordpress site by setting up a tunnel to it through ngroc. Siteground seems to be able to connect to the site, but the plugin is unable to create a tar archive in the folder with a lot of numbers and letters (1555446124-e8818e964e4608cc92d2db7dbc34acfa69b1cd0d). I have tried playing with permissions and giving write access to the tunnel. At first I got this error:[17-Apr-2019 03:43:46 UTC] INFO: Transfer started. Creating archives of files... [17-Apr-2019 03:43:46 UTC] INFO: Updating transfer id. [17-Apr-2019 03:43:46 UTC] INFO: Updating transfer psk. [17-Apr-2019 03:43:48 UTC] INFO: Site domain to be changed to salvatoricenter.org/ [17-Apr-2019 03:43:50 UTC] INFO: Transfer started. Creating archives of files... [17-Apr-2019 03:43:51 UTC] INFO: Critical Environment Error [17-Apr-2019 03:43:51 UTC] ERROR: Array ( [type] => 1 [message] => Uncaught PharException: phar "/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/uploads/1555446124-e8818e964e4608cc92d2db7dbc34acfa69b1cd0d/plugins/chosen-pro.tar" unable to create temporary file in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php:205 Stack trace: #0 /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php(205): PharData->buildFromDirectory('/Applications/X...') #1 /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php(146): Siteground_Migrator_Files_Service->create_encrypted_archive('/plugins/chosen...') #2 /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-background-process.php(55): Siteground_Migrator_Files_Service->prepare_archive [file] => /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php [line] => 205 )Then, after figuring out how to give write permission to the server, I got no error anymore but the plugin would hang on creating archive and the error log would produce nothing. No archive was ever created, and the folders stayed the same size. Any thoughts on what is happening?

Hi,
Thank you for the response!
Well the Log does not show anything, I have checked the POST requests and it seems this error comes up<br /> <b>Fatal error</b>: Uncaught PharException: phar "/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/uploads/1555446124-e8818e964e4608cc92d2db7dbc34acfa69b1cd0d/plugins/chosen-pro.tar" unable to create temporary file in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php:205 Stack trace: #0 /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php(205): PharData->buildFromDirectory('/Applications/X...') #1 /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php(146): Siteground_Migrator_Files_Service->create_encrypted_archive('/plugins/chosen...') #2 /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-background-process.php(55): Siteground_Migrator_Files_Service->prepare_archive in <b>/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php</b> on line <b>205</b><br />After this error all the POST requests after have:
{ "success": true, "data": { "message": "Transfer started. Creating archives of files...", "status": 1, "description": "", "progress": false } }It does not stop and show “critical error” or log anything in the local log for whatever reason, but it seems this error is stopping it.
Ok, I have managed to issue an ACL command on the uploads folder (in which the folder with all the numbers is contained) giving the server “daemon” permission to write to it. Now I no longer see an error in the POST requests. But I still do not see any archives created.
Now I only see:
{ "success": true, "data": { "message": "Transfer started. Creating archives of files...", "status": 1, "description": "", "progress": false } }And the occasional “heartbeat”:
{ "wp-auth-check": true, "server_time": 1555660629 }So the error does still occur, it just does not happen immediately. Again, here is the POST request that’s thrown:
<br /> <b>Fatal error</b>: Uncaught PharException: phar "/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/uploads/1555446124-e8818e964e4608cc92d2db7dbc34acfa69b1cd0d/plugins/chosen-pro.tar" unable to create temporary file in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php:205 Stack trace: #0 /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php(205): PharData->buildFromDirectory('/Applications/X...') #1 /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php(146): Siteground_Migrator_Files_Service->create_encrypted_archive('/plugins/chosen...') #2 /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-background-process.php(55): Siteground_Migrator_Files_Service->prepare_archive in <b>/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/siteground-migrator/includes/class-siteground-migrator-files-service.php</b> on line <b>205</b><br />So the solution was to put a copy of /Applications/XAMPP/bin/mysqldump in /bin/. Yes, the bin folder at the root of my mac computer. I don’t think this is conventional at all, but it’s a temporary solution and seems to work. Probably smart to remove it after the migration is done.
