I am running Moodle 3.2 on a private server and I could not restore any of my courses so I read some or your instructions and I was told to turn on the debugger and when I did that I received a long error message.  Please help

Is your date.timezone setting in php.ini set to something sensible for a start.

How did you enable debugging?

In your config.php try setting 

$CFG->timezone = 99;

Thank you so much that did work.  Maybe you can help me with the restoration of some of my courses.  It allows me to back them up and then when I try to restore it will stop at number 6 and says that the data cannot be found but it is in the moodle files.

Is this restoring into the *same* Moodle site that backed up the courses?

Now you have debugging on, what is the "full" error message and any other warnings you get? You may have to look in your web server's error log.
