Transfer domain to new server -Restore failed!

SYSTEM INFORMATION
OS type and version RHEL 9
Webmin version 7
Virtualmin version 7

when using the 'transfer domain to new server I get the following error

password: 
Checking for missing features ..
.. all features in backup are supported

Checking for errors in backup ..
.. no errors found

Starting restore..
Extracting backup archive files ..
.. done

Re-creating virtual server alexjfarling.com ..
.. could not work out the default IP address

Restore failed!

the server is a VM with a 10.x address however the IP is correct

One quick workaround could be to:

  1. create the virtual server manually (before you begin the restore)

  2. at the time of the restore, check only the boxes for database restore, web content restore and any others that you deem necessary, such as mailbox restore

i keep getting the

checking contents of the backup ..

Have you tried disabling the ipv6 address in the restore dialog ?
