Restoring backup

[ausadmin]

We have been using OpenKM for a while now in a test phase. Now we are getting more serious, I want to be able to prove restoration of a backup. This instance is running OpenKM CE 6.3.11.

I have created a new computer (Ubuntu 20.04) and installed OpenKM. It is all working, I can login as okmAdmin, create a folder and upload some documents. All good. This instance is running OpenKM CE 6.3.12.

Now I want to make a backup of our test OpenKM copy over to the new computer and restore. I have followed the procedure in the documentation https://docs.openkm.com/kcenter/view/ok ... store.html:
Backup steps:
Stop Tomcat (optional).
Backup the database (mandatory).
Backup the repository folder (mandatory).
Start Tomcat (optional).

Then on the new computer, restore steps
Mysql already installed and working.
Stop tomcat (in fact stop openkm in this version)
Restore backed up files to /home/openkm/tomcat-8.5.34
mysql -h localhost -u root -p okmdb < /home/openkm/tomcat-8.5.34/db/okmdb.sql
Start tomcat (in fact start openkm in this version)
Verify file permissions
Login - but I don’t see my restored documents - only the original documents that were uploaded on this new computer.

I must be missing something obvious - how do we specify the location of the repository (or the database instance for mysql to use)?

I have searched for a solution to this but have not been able to find anything.

Thanks for any assistance.

First, both OpenKM should have the same version ( I suggest upgrade 6.3.11 to 6.3.12 and then go ahead with restore process ).

If you are watching the same documents it means the database dump has not been restored in the target.
