If a partial restore fails:
- Confirm the file matches the selected restore type.
- Check that the upload completed and the file is not corrupted.
- Verify enough disk space is available.
- For a database, confirm the backup is a valid database dump for the expected application.
- For Home Directory data, confirm the archive was created as a cPanel Home Directory backup rather than a full account archive.
Do not repeatedly upload the same file into different restore types. Identify the backup format first.
