Welcome to DevKinsta @ohadf ! I’m sorry to hear you’re having trouble importing a site on DevKinsta. Do you happen to have any firewall settings or antivirus software on your computer that you can disable?

Could you elaborate a bit on this? Are you saying that after it downloads a few GB’s that it asks you for credentials again? Would you mind providing a screenshot of that prompt? Thank you!

Apologies for the trouble there. Could you try again? If you continue to have issues uploading, could you tell us what the file type is that you’re uploading it in?

Do you have Docker running by chance? Docker itself should be running, along with all the containers listed there for DevKinsta.

Could you confirm the containers as well? The reason I ask is because the bug log on our end is indicating the docker containers have stopped on your machine.

In the beginning they were working, Maybe something made them crash through the import process, but i know that after it got stuck the containers were working because i worked on one of them.

Hi @ohadf ! I wanted to check if you were still having this issue and if so if you’ve updated to the latest version of DevKinsta?
