[Plugin: Duplicator] Missing files in archive?

    I’m working on a deployment process for some of our developers and it looks like Duplicator could fill a critical need, but I’m having some trouble with the target server installation. It looks like some files are missing on the other end.

    At the moment, after submitting the install form on the target server the site is complaining about a missing wp-includes/default-contstants.php file. A quick look shows me that the file simply doesn’t exist in the package that is getting installed. I also did a quick, visual directory compare and it looks like there are several other files that also didn’t get packaged up.

    Any idea what I might be missing?

    Thanks.

    It may be worth noting that our server is running PHP 5.2.4. Duplicator itself seems to indicate that this is sufficient, but I’ve seen indications in my searches that 5.2.3 might be required for some/all functionality so I thought I’d mention it here in case that opens the door for any revelations.

    Hey Rob,

    Yeah the plugin has only been tested with 5.2.17 and higher. I would strongly encourage you to upgrade to at least that, as there are some PHP security fixes in that version.

    Hope that helps!

    Argh, ok. I have a habit of, at a glance, reading version numbers wrong once a component hits double digits. I read the requirement as 5.2.1.7 and it looks like a bunch of stuff isn’t getting added to the package itself. Maybe there’s a dependency in the archiver itself.

    Thanks.

    There could be. I believe that some bugs where fixed in the PHP ZipArchive class during the 5.2.n iteration. I’ll shoot you the next version via email in the next 24hrs if you want to give that a shot.

    Otherwise you might try “wp move” it’s a free plugin as well, or you could try the old fashion way. There are also some commercial options with WP-Twin or BackupBuddy.

    Cheers!
