 * While restoring a duplicator backup from a previous host, I’m getting this error:
 * failed processing data replacement: Chunk error, message: Data too long for column‘
   referrer’ at row 1[/home/esdomains/public_html/dup-installer/classes/class.engine.
   php|391],
   wait 5 seconds and retry.**second attempt**
 * This happens on Step 3 (Update Data)
 * This only happens on DAF, not ZIP archives
 * Why is this happening and how can I get it fixed?

 * [@sirotwo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sirotwo/) ,
 * Yes, sure.
 * Please get the installer log as instructed in this post:     – [https://duplicator.com/knowledge-base/how-do-i-read-the-installer-log/](https://duplicator.com/knowledge-base/how-do-i-read-the-installer-log/)
 * You will find the error **failed processing data replacement: Chunk error, message:
   Data too long for column ….**
 * When you find the error, you will need to figure out which database query that
   causes the problem.
 * Read the database query carefully and recognize the database table and column
   where the issue happens.
 * After that, you can fix the issue as follows:
 * Alternatively, you can change the column type during the installation as follows:
    - Run the installation
    - Proceed until step 2
    - Open your destination website database using PHPMyadmin
    - Change the problematic column type to LONGTEXT in problematic table
      If you
      can’t change the column type to LONGTEXT, please try increasing the column
      length
    - Continue the installation
 * If you can’t recognize the problematic table and column, please contact us at
   [https://duplicator.com/contact/?form=1](https://duplicator.com/contact/?form=1),
   and I will guide you to get this information.
 * I hope this helps,
 * Thanks!
