Unfortunately, there is an obsolete file sv-SE.kickstart.ini in my daily backup. When I try to restore using Akeeba Backup or extract using standalone Kickstart, the job is interrupted with the error message "Extract fails, can't open file <root>sv-SE.kickstart.ini for writing.

The <root>sv-SE.kickstart.ini is created by kickstart with permissions 0644 and size 0.

Log entry from backup:

It seems to me as <root>sv-SE.kickstart.ini is interfering in the extracting of files. Is there any possibility to skip the file sv-SE.kickstart.ini?

Help is appreciated.

Hello

It has nothing to do with the file sv-SE.kickstart.ini. I was misled by the fact that error message pointed to the first file.

When extracting with option "Ignore most errors" all files are extracted but the following files were empty:

<root>.ftpquota
<root>configuration.php
<root>htaccess.bak
<root>htaccess.txt
<root>index.php
<root>LICENSE.txt
<root>README.txt
<root>robots.txt
<root>robots.txt.dist
<root>sv-SE.kickstart.ini
<root>web.config.txt

In a second step I extracted only the above files and they extracted ok and I could restore the site.
