We tried to make LogicalDOC as intuitive as possible, but an advice is always welcome.

Full Restoration of LogicalDOC on new server fails

Wed Aug 15, 2018 5:38 pm

LogicalDOC 8.0.1 on CentOS 7

Hello. We recently suffered some catastrophic hardware loss due to a lightning strike. I am trying to restore my LogicalDOC backups to a new server. The application is already configured and activated. I'm getting some strange feedback from restore.sh. For one thing, it appears to be skipping some of my backup increments. Also, it's referring to a .bcfg file that does not appear in either my conf or ldbackup_config_backup folders (application.bcfg).

Below is the output I received when I ran restore.sh

Buildfile: ./build.xml

Hi die7fox,

in the context.properties of the backup locate the key restore.application and put restore.application=false
This avoids the deletion of the application folder.

Then i see the database was not restored so in the same file locate the settings db.xxx and properly configure the connection to the database.
Also locate the setting restore.db.command and there put the path to your mysql command.
