I created a vapor package of my old site and injected it into Modx Cloud, however when I log into the site nothing's been injected.
How do I check if everything's all doing what it's supposed to be doing?
And if it isn't, how do I fix it?
Thanks

Are you using vapor over ftp/http ? if so you probably need to do it via command line.

Large sites often time out using Vapor over Ftp.

Sorry, I meant command line not FTP.
Even so it still seems to take a long time to inject it.

Hmmm,
when I look at the size of the vapor package it's tiny, so Im guessing there's nothing in it, even though it said it got created without any problems.
What I have noticed is that I now have a huge backup folder on my existing server.
I haven't done anything to create the backup so I'm wondering if it's a result of vapor doing something.

Were you logged in as a Manager user when you ran the Vapor script?

Susan,
I think it was a time issue.
Although I got a completion message, I noticed this morning that my vapor file is 10 times the size it was yesterday.
I'll try injecting it again and see if I get anything this time.

That timing can be a problem with a big site, and if you're using the HTML method. One thing I've done when I had no other choice was to zip up and move all the images (using the CPanel zip utility on the whole images folder), then run Vapor, and replace the images in their proper place later.
