Thanks for the response. I was able to finally successfully restore to the dev environment on my local machine. I had to make sure my network was stable, even thought all files and resources were local. When my VPN cut out, the restore failed. And the next time the php process exceed its memory limit. Once I corrected those issues, it ran successfully.

However, it ran very slowly. It took 8+ hours, every time. I’m not sure what your process is doing behind the scenes, but I am able to export the live database, do a sed call to update the urls to the dev urls, install the updated database, and copy the site files over in a matter of minutes.

The one thing your tool does do better than my process is maintain some settings for an older site theme I have. For some reason, any time I use my process to migrate a dev version of the site, the theme reverts to the default settings. I have not been able to figure out where those are saved or why they won’t migrate.
