No resolution. In this (GoDaddy) case I resorted to old school sftp and database dumps.

Last week, on a smaller, non-GoDaddy site, I spent an entire afternoon trying to use this plugin to export virtually every combination of Media, Database, Core Files, blah blah. The export completed each time and I dutifully downloaded it, but the plugin never once produced a zip file that LocalWP knew how to import. All this talk of simplicity is false. Wasted half a day and cannot in good conscience bill my client for that time.

@elviiso, I’m well aware of what the Mixed Content problem is.

This site has used FooGallery for years without issue. I take the 2.4.16 update and the galleries’ format breaks. I roll back to 2.4.15 and the issue goes away. Seems like a breaking change to me.

I rolled back to 2.4.15 and my issue goes away so I do believe it’s a bug with 2.4.16.

Looking back, I do see fileperms() errors in debug.log, but they do not continue with permissions set to 775. I don’t know why the plugin doesn’t see the change.

Hi @dbisupport, thanks for your quick response last night. I am picking up where I left off. Today I am trying to migrate a site that’s a subsite of the main one, i.e., it’s rooted at public_html/example.com; this is GoDaddy’s way. I freshly installed your plugin to that site and am getting a permissions error. I have changed permissions to 775 on wp-content/uploads and all subdirectories but the error persists, even if I deactivate and reactivate the plugin. I can’t believe it should be necessary to grant world permissions.

If I uncheck Media Files the migration picks up Themes & Plugins, then hangs on Other Files (0% (0.00?B?/?15.86?GB)), finally failing at 0:46:56.

It finally reported “Migration Failed” at 36:21.
