Akeeba Backup and Xmap installation problems

[guilleva]

Hi all,

there is a known issue with Xmap's installation on some environments where Akeeba backup is installed.

Please read this thread for more info:

What was the solution to this problem. That page no longer exist.

I am getting this error when installing XMAP pkg_com_xmap-2.2.zip

Another menu item with the same parent has this alias
Error building Admin Menus
Component Install: DB function reports no errors
Package Install: There was an error installing an extension: com_xmap.zip

It appears that the Akeeba Backup + Xmap problems only existed on older versions of Akeeba Backup and the part causing it (System Restore) has since been removed from the free version of Akeeba Backup. Even on Akeeba Backup PRO it is disabled by default.

I am on Akeeba Backup Pro 3.7.2 and Xmap 2.3.3 beta and I have not noticed any problems. I have just recently upgraded to Xmap 2.3.3 beta and the installation worked without issues.
