So I took the akeeba backup and created site locally. When I created website, I got error as Internal Server Error. To solve that error I removed whatever was there in .htaccess file. Now website is working locally, however administrator is not working. I followed the answer of same question, however it is not working. Can anyone point, where I am going wrong? I need this to be done anyhow. Edit 1 Below is what I have in apache_error.log [Thu Nov 29 10:22:34 2012] [notice] Digest: generating secret for digest authentication ...

Also, try taking a backup of the site without using Akeeba. I personally always make a zip of the FTP, and backup the database separately. –Lodder Nov 26 '12 at 15:19 @Lodder : Any idea how to wo

The most notable culprits are .htaccess and local php.ini directives. If your site was using Admin Tools' .htaccess Maker If you have used Admin Tools' .htaccess Maker please remember that after http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13567726/joomla-2-5-error-500-internal-server-error restoring the site to a different location you will need to reconfigure and create a new .htaccess. Login to the back-end of your site, go to Components, Admin Tools, .htaccess Maker, then change the domain and directory names at the bottom of the page and finally click on Save & Create .htaccess. This is mandatory, every time you move your site to a different host, domain name, subdomain or directory. https://www.akeebabackup.com/documentation/troubleshooter/prbasicts.html I can't log in to my site after I restored it to a new location This is a very common mistake with Joomla! 1.6/1.7 and later versions. What you probably not remember is that you modified the cookie setup parameters in your site's Global Configuration page. The thing is, if you modify the cookie domain name and/or path, it's very likely that you will no longer be able to log in to your site if the domain name, subdomain or directory changes - exactly what happens when you restore a site to anywhere except its original location! Luckily, the workaround is very simple. Please edit the configuration.php file in the root of your site and find the lines starting with public $cookie_domain and public $cookie_path. Modify them so that they read: public $cookie_domain = ''; public $cookie_path = ''; Save the file, clear your browser's cookies and cache, quit and restart your browser and try logging in to your site. You should be able to login without any problem now. Another thing that you should be aware of is that the same problem could be caused by your .htaccess file. It's always a good idea to at least temporarily rename .htaccess to something else (e.g. htacce
