= WARNING ! FileZilla issues FileZilla downloads php files in ASCII mode (as text), that means it converts line endings to your system's defaults. For Darwin Backup archives that means binary data inside archive gets corrupted. To download archives safely, make sure you set 'Transfers' -> 'File Types' -> 'Default transfer type' to BINARY in FileZilla preferences ! If something breaks (no matter how severely) and your dashboard is not accessible, you can use this backup link to recover site quickly. Always email links to archive or copy them to clipboard right after backup to have instant access to recovery UI, which is built-in into your backup.
Just point your browser to the mailed / copied to clipboard link and click restore.
This will require some extra effort:
Only if you are going to replicate the site. Otherwise - no, uploads folder does not contain files needed to restore your Wordpress to a working state, so feel free to not backup it for the restoration purposes.
Just download a backup (PHP file), upload it to the new site and point your browser to it.
IMPORTANT: You can hit this problem only when duplicating sites or pointing your browser directly to the archive file. Copied to clipboard or emailed links, provided after backup or from listing screen, are already wrapped with restore.php
Most probably you are affected by 'out of memory' issue above. Please follow up the steps described in I'm getting Fatal error: Allowed memory size ... exhausted ... section
An observation shows that some hosting providers decrease memory_limit dynamically (for example GoDaddy), and even though you are able to open restore panel, it might fail with 'out of memory' on the subsequent requests. See I'm getting Fatal error: Allowed memory size ... exhausted ... section for possible solutions
The archives produced by Darwin Backup are world-accessible and do not depend on Wordpress code base so you can restore even if your Wordpress renders 500 Internal Server Error. If archives are not protected with username / password, a malicious user who has the link to archive can restore your site to some previous state w/o your permission. On restore, archive will check if it can authorize you against your current Wordpress installation, and if it can - it will prompt you for your Wordpress username / password. If your original Wordpress mysql instance is not accessible (eg when restored on a different host) - you will get directly to the recovery screen, no username/password asked, so do not forget to delete archive
