Hey mjclob,
Here is a helpful section on the FAQs page:
-> Browse To: http://lifeinthegrid.com/duplicator-faq/
-> Find Section: “1 Package”
-> See Area/Question: “What if I see “500 Internal Server Error?”
You might check the php error logs, 500 error are tough to track down and the server admins should have tools to help. I would have your host do a better job of helping out, unless they are doing it for free…
Hope that helps!

Thanks. None of the above helped
When I check compatibility OPEN BASE DIR -is a fail.
My host says there is no way for them to turn it on so I guess the plugin won’t work due to the host specs (I’ve used it on other hosts fine)
I can see and download my backup files within wp-snapshots folder
Backup is….5103000adee375754_20130125_mydomain_package.zip
Installer is called…….5103000adee375754_20130125_mydomain_installer.php
instead of installer.php as it is when it allows the download from within the plugin.
I have tried placing these in the new site directory and changing the name of the installer to installer etc but can’t get it to run.
I’ve looked at the install file and it looks the same as ones that have worked before.
Is it possible to use these files or or are they not usable form snapshot folder.
Any help greatly appreciated as it looks like OPEN DIR is the problem as it is a fail and not your plugin which is fine usually.
Yeah if you want to submit a support ticket I can look at these a bit closer for you, but if your host has looked at your PHP and Apache logs with no luck then my feeling is that the server specs you have are causing the issues which usually can’t be overridden in most cases.
As far as the files are concerned you can run the installer file no matter what it is named. Those names are give to create security around the files. So since you have them posted online you might want to delete them and recreate new ones…
Hope that helps!

In the log you will want to actually see that it finishes should see something like:
STEP 1 COMPLETE
If you don’t then your probably up against a timeout issue from the server itself. Check out the FAQ page it mentions some options for timeouts…
Hope that helps!
I am having a similar issue. However, my install is stopping at an earlier point. Here is my install log.

I resolved my issue. I chose the “Manual” extraction option under “Advanced” setup.
If you still have time you might want remove your entry as it has data that you don’t want to submit in the forum…
