Description of my issue:

restoring joomla 4 site to new server results in error : 

Error — Class 'FOFEncryptAes' not found
#0 C:\MAMP\htdocs\test2\installation\platform\models\joomlasetup.php(411): AngieModelJoomlaSetup->updateTFA('NPW9pUast8WsqMu...', 'REyz3mnMMW1FF8p...')

#6 C:\MAMP\htdocs\test2\installation\index.php(115): AApplication->dispatch()
#7 C:\MAMP\htdocs\test2\installation\index.php(230): mainLoop()
#8 {main}

the error above is from a local tryout

the same error is shown when I try to install on my hosting

I already tried :

  • reinstalling akeeba backup (twice)
  • installing on local host instead of online
  • made a new backup in case there was an error writing the file
  • redownloading kickstart files

How can I prevent this error?

Disable the Two Factor Authentication plugins before taking a backup. This will skip over that section of the restoration code.

I have worked on a workaround for that issue a few days ago. It's currently in the testing phase. It will be included in the next release.
