Accessing Test site

Hi,

I’m trying to test a joomla website on a test server. I’ve uploaded the backup file and the Akeeba Core Files, but when I go to try and access the website to install it, I get a blank page.

https://gbf-test.42web.io/ is the link that I have been given.

I’ve put the files into a folder called “Home”.

Any ideas as to why I can’t run the kickstart.php file?

I’ve tried https://gbf-test.42web.io/home/kickstart.php

I’ve also noticed that the kickstart.php file keeps disappearing after I upload it with filezilla. Any ideas as to why this is happening??

How large is this file?

The file exceeds the file size limit

The InfinityFree web servers have size limits for all files. If the file size exceeds the limit, the file is automatically deleted.

The size limits are:

• HTML and PHP files are limited 1 MB.
• .htaccess files are limited to 10 kB.
• All other files are limited to 10 MB.

Backup plugins tend to not work here because of both the file size limit and PHP execution limits.

Instead, you can move the files with FTP and the database with phpMyAdmin. The Joomla documentation actually describes this just after the Akeeba method:
