I have a site I built for a client on my GoDaddy server and I'm trying to move it to Network Solutions. When I tried kickstart.php on Network Solutions it said there was security and I need to upload a kickstart.json.php file, which I did. Then when unpacking the site I continually got "Suboptimal PHP OPcache settings detected" and to have the NS host add "opcache.revalidate_path=1" to the PHP. I did that as well, but getting them to do that was not easy. After they added it, and I tried to install the site, I continually get the error "An unexpected error occurred". I tried the suggested changes to adjust the minimum and maximum execution times with no success.

I thought I'd just unpack the website on my GoDaddy server where I have about 15 Joomla websites with Akeeba backup. I've restored several websites on this server with easy success. This time, I get the exact same issues with GoDaddy as I am getting with Network Solutions! The OPchache settings, the kickstart security issue, and the continual "unexpected error". 

I don't understand what is happening and how to fix it. I'm terrified that if I need to restore a website on the same server the site is on that I no longer can trust Akeeba Backup to do so. I'm hoping it's a simple fix that I am missing, but I could not find any solutions on the Akeeba website or on other forums.

 

Please help.
