How do I share my error logs without sharing my data with everyone?

Hello @vayu 👋
It seems that there are a couple of issues with the site starting from the Freetrailer plugin and theme, but the main reason MySQL dump is failing, as per the logs is database table `wp_wpforms_entry_fields` at row: 5860
Are you pulling from live or from staging site?

For some reason I do not get mail notifications when you guys respond. I will have to look into why.
To answer your question, I am trying get from Live.
I do not know why there would be an error with `wp_wpforms_entry_fields`?

Please try creating a fresh staging site and pulling it. If the issue reoccurs, try deleting wp\_wpforms\_entry\_fields and then try pulling from staging again.
Let me know if that works 👍

Okay, I will try to import a new site locally. I have now activated notifications, so I should get an email next time.

I can see that DevKinsta throws and error: “Can’t create mysql dump” DK0029 during the creation/import of a new site.

Same error as when I tried to update the local site:

Hi @vayu
I’m not certain if this has been attempted before, but you can try requesting a downloadable backup of your site from MyKinsta. Once you have the downloaded zip file, please import it into Devkinsta by selecting _ **Create New Site \>\> Custom Site \>\> Import from Backup.** _
Let us know how it goes.
