I am having issues cloning sites. I have narrowed it down to 2 senarios:
Works:
Create site from platfrom (i.e. Drupal 6.15)
Do nothing to it (virgin site)
Run Clone: it works
Doesn't Work:
Create site from platform
Do normal dev, install modules, themes etc...
- Modules are installed via Drush DL or FTP via SSH as root.
- Things like CKEditor need FTP uploads and can not be done solely by Drush
- This caused some ownership issues so ran verifiy, noted permission issues and made corrections via command-line
- Verify, backup and restore all work fine after resetting permissions
Run Clone: it fails with the error below (bolded)
It looks like the "Undefined index: driver" or "Undefined index: site_port" errors may be the culprit but I can't figure how to troubleshoot them (no google answers)
Here are the errors I'm getting:
...

In any case, don't run drush
In any case, don't run drush as root.
Before trying to clone, make sure (twice) you have correct permissions in your Aegir dir-tree.
Next, re-verify the site and the platform you will use for cloning the site.
Also, check if there is directory or symlink left in sites/* after any broken attempt to install/verify/delete the site.
In short: you can expect many strange errors when you have invalid permissions in the Aegir system.
It is always better to fix simple things first, before looking for other reasons of errors.
