I have no idea of what's happening here… I guess /var/www exists on your server ?

Jaxom99 commented 10 months ago

Yes, I have a /var/www and the permissions on it are set just like the previous server. But the backup was made with limited ressources (server was a bit overload, mainly disk io), so maybe there was some trouble with backup, and now I'm in a weird server state. I will probably reinstall rather than wasting volunteer's time and brain-juice :sweat_smile: I keep the backup fil, will see if it's replicable...

You could also reinstall, make a backup, and then replace the data files in the new backup with the ones from the old backup, and then restore this new-but-old-backup. Hopefully it would be enough to restore proper path restorations and so on (checkout the backup.csv file anyway, just in case the like of uploaded pictures makes it forget that folder… :thinking:) but with the old data.

I can assist you during this operation :)

Jaxom99 commented 10 months ago

Thanks, but I really had no data other than test posts on the first server. So "no biggie" :) I'm not sure there is anything left to do on this issue, you can close it if you want. Or if anyone has energy to dig into it, I can provide logs or files.

(PS: I made a fresh new install on this new server, and I have another major bug so... maybe I will start by asking in the forum ^^ )

If that's apparently a bug, please open an issue :)
