BACKEND Sprint 18
Total of 3 errors associated with restoring a Front Page Backup:
1) Attempting to restore a front page backup (from a 2.1 install) fails with message 'Restoring over front page is not allowed'
2) The backup file which was uploaded does not stay in the Course Backup Area (related to MDL-30808 ?)
3) Choosing Settings -> Site Administration : Front page : Front page restore (URL /files/index.php?id=1&wdir=%2Fbackupdata) generates Internal Server Error
This means that you cannot set up a site with a front page on a local sandbox machine and then port it onto a production site.
