    Sorry, the copy failed. Unable to find the cpanel user file. Is the archive missing (cwd: /home/cprestore loaded alto-sax/cp/alto-sax)?

    Go on, have a guess
    Have you checked the actual tarball:

    tar -tzf /home/alto-sax.tar.gz

    Chirpy, you should to know that this caused by cPanel, not by the archive intergrity.

    We had had such issues periodically. Mostly they were for backups created by /scripts/pkgacct
    The restore using /scripts/restorepkg doesn't work, but file in question does exist.

    THE SOLUTION: Rename tar-ball from USERNAME.tar.gz to cpmove-USERNAME.tar.gz

    This is the 'feature' of cPanel restore. If you have created backups manually they named as cpmove-someusername.tar.gz and you need to keep them the same!

    EDIT: If you wish to create backups without cpmove prefix, like backups script does, use this command /scripts/pkgacct USERNAME /backup backup where USERNAME is the account username you need to copy.
