Have just reinstalled a website from 2015 on the same server as before. I deleted the server for all the old files, then made a new clean install using the old GPEasy ver. 4.3.4, thereafter uploading the unzipped files from my recent gpexport-file.
Site name: www.kubbi.info
Then I made the website switch to HTTPS.
Everything seems to be working right, also with HTTPS, but I cannot logon as an administrator, instead I get an error message saying something like this: "Sorry, your session has expired. Please login again. (timeout)."
But I have never logged in on this "new" site!
Can this reinstallation (old version of GPEasy) not run under HTTPS? Or is there another issue?
It looks like I only have this problem when using google Chrome ver. 69. It works ok with FF and IE, but somehow everytime I try to login via Chrome, I'll have to wait 15 minutes to login again. It's if Chrome thinks I have logged in and out again when I haven't ???

Sorry, I don't know the cause of this issue this time, but two things come to mind:
uploading the unzipped files from my recent gpexport-file
- Have you tried to create an _exports directory in the new site's /data directory, copy the exported archive there and restore it via gpEasy's internal method?
That's the way to restore an export, normally (which will care about an installation's unique ID). - Does anything speak against using a more recent Typesetter version?
Hi Jürgen, had to try those issues out.
1. Created a directory and copied the gzip file in it.
GPeasy could not restore the export via it's internal method. I had to unpack and copy via FTP, no problem.
It was neccessary to install the old site, to be able to create a new with latest version cms. The old template does not work right just by update directly (rifle-default).
But I can use firefox to look at the old site, so I'll get by :-).
