Hi

Akeeba backup works nearly for Joomla 5 beta 1 , but the manage backup page crashes because of JFactory , if I change it I get an empty page

thanks

Please first read https://www.akeeba.com/news/1756-pbf-2023.html to understand why the current version of Akeeba Backup does not work on Joomla 5. They did change a lot of things between the last alpha and the first beta, without any announcement —let alone any prior announcement— or guidance in what changed. I had to read the code changes in the commits and figure it out myself, then work towards addressing those changes. I have already worked around all these problems.

The development version linked in that post does not contain all of the work I have done; just the first three days which is about 80% of the work. The next 2 days of work for the next 20% will be included in the next released version. I did not release it yet because I am still testing it. There has been a massive amount of work done on the software in these 5 days. I don't want to make a release that might be accidentally broken just so I can support the beta of a Joomla! version which is not going to be released for another month or more.

There are more problems than the backup manage page you have not yet bumped on ;)
