    Hey there! Did you see any other lines reported from the Transfer Tool when you tried that work? That piece of the transfer log is usually just information, and doesn't indicate a specific error. If there are other entries in the log please let me see those and that might allow me to provide better details.

    Thank you for the speedy response! Yes, there was more in the logs... This is the full error message: Starting "RESTORE" for "Account" "domain".

    Thanks for the details - that seems much better and gives me more information to work with. Is this work happening through the Transfer Tool in WHM or did you create the backup and move the backup file to a new server to restore it? It looks like the latter option to me, and if that is the case can you run the following command the cpmove file to see what it says? tar -tzf /home/cpmove-domain-1606152865.tar.gz That will give a lot of output, but if you see something like this block of text, that would indicate the tar file is corrupted and you won't be able to restore your data from it: gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file tar: Unexpected EOF in archive tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
    We have some additional details about this in our article here: How to check a tar file for corruption but let me know if that helps!
