Problem Identification
Here the term CleanPanel refers to a cPanel skin.The issue is that the said skin is not available in the new server and that is reason why we are getting this error. You can follow the below steps provided for resolving this.Â
Steps to Fix the issue
1. First of all you need to extract the backup file.Â
Eg: user.tar.gz  (user is the cPanel user) Sometimes it may be in the format backup-9.5.2010_17-46-50_user.tar.gz or cpmove-user.tar.gz, the procedure is the same.
2. Go to the directory which you just extracted then go to cp directory.
3. There you will get the file with cpanel username, you need to edit that fileÂ
Eg:Â Â vi cpmove-user/cp/user
if these values are something else then you need to set them as :
FEATURELIST=default RS=x3
4. Now compress the backup again and try to restore it ð
