reseller account has no ssh access and I am trying to migrate accounts to a dedicated server with cpanel as well.

I get the following error after uploading the backup tar ball in the new dedicated server then using whm<backup<restore full backup/cpmove

Restore for accountqww

Searching /home....
Found backup-12.14.2013_05-15-37_accountqww.tar.gz !
Extracting tarball...................
Done

Extracting Domain....Done

Sorry, we were unable to transfer the account. Information about accountqww's primary domain is either missing or corrupt. For more information, please examine /home/cprestore/backup-12.14.2013_05-15-37_accountqww/cp/accountqww
checked 8 files.....



Please help me with the solution

Hello :)

Please try transferring the account via:

"WHM Home » Transfers » Copy an Account From Another Server With an Account Password"

Does this allow the account to transfer successfully?

Thank you.

Try generating a backup for a different account and uploading it to the destination server again. Does it also fail to restore successfully?

Thank you.

Unfortunately, it's difficult to troubleshoot the issue without root access to the source server. Are you able to contact your hosting provider on the source server to let them know the backups of your accounts are corrupted?

Thank you.
