[06:52:15] <captainhonora> Thanks
[06:52:33] <captainhonora> Is it possible to restore a 11 backup on Debian 12 or no?
[06:55:31] <miro5001> > <@captainhonora:matrix.org> Is it possible to restore a 11 backup on Debian 12 or no?

Yeah that's possible, though some users had some issues that were fixed
[06:55:48] <captainhonora> Thanks! Will try then
[07:58:40] <captainhonora> Anyone else got stuck on login screen after yunohost 12 install?
[07:59:09] <captainhonora> I enter the correct password and it flashes to grey as if loading the DE then goes back to asking the password.
[08:00:23] <captainhonora> Looking it up online it seems to be an issue with the session X11 or wayland but I can't seem to find an easy way to switch between the two
[08:15:17] <miro5001> There is no DE in yunohost
[08:15:30] <miro5001> What did you do?
[08:17:41] <captainhonora> I'm on debian 12. I want to restore backup that I have on a HDD but I'm not that familiar with CLI so struggling to mount the disk and restore the backup.
[08:20:10] <captainhonora> So I'm either trying to get a DE working or learn to mount the HDD and use cp in CLI
[08:20:25] <captainhonora> Never done it manually before
[08:21:12] <captainhonora> https://aria.im/_bifrost/v1/media/download/AYKiW3ChEiPVrE2iX0AC1lnC6iAIckvRm9xwMu0HL4k3Y842hkQ4WuMqLagLLewa3dc1_N_Eqrf6X4KW7sWWiIxCeYbwVCfwAG1hdHJpeC5vcmcvUGJuRk9sU1JXdVJDWFNRdFVBamJUVUVQ
[08:21:33] <captainhonora> I just need to mount the hdd and cp the file in the correct place and it will show up there.

[08:51:55] <miro5001> You'll mainly need (4)
[09:04:24] <captainhonora> Thanks! looks like I was able to mount it, now restoring the backup
[09:13:28] <captainhonora> restore backup didn't work
[09:14:46] <captainhonora> you do not exist in the passwd database
[09:15:11] <captainhonora> (when trying to share logs to give y'all more info).
[09:18:02] <captainhonora> also copying backup.tar to yunohost.backup/archive gives "you do not exist in the passwd database"
[09:19:48] <Tagada> 👋 can you share the full log please ? Using YunoPaste
[09:22:47] <miro5001> > <@captainhonora:matrix.org> also copying backup.tar to yunohost.backup/archive gives "you do not exist in the passwd database"

You should restore the backup right after you install yunohost. You shouldn't run the post install
[09:26:05] <captainhonora> I don't have access to YunoPaste
[09:26:24] <captainhonora> > <@miro5001:matrix.org> You should restore the backup right after you install yunohost. You shouldn't run the post install

ah ok, good to know.
[10:15:02] <captainhonora> What is the default path of backups?
[10:16:24] <lautre> in `/home/yunohost.backup/` and there is `archives`
[10:17:14] <lautre> If you try to restore a backup and the same app is already in place, it will fail
[10:19:06] <captainhonora> > <@lautre:matrix.org> in `/home/yunohost.backup/` and there is `archives`

Thanks!
[11:47:44] <captainhonora> https://paste.yunohost.org/raw/isefubered
[11:48:25] <captainhonora> Is that because forgejo is not available on the new yunohost ?
[13:28:56] <captainhonora> > <@miro5001:matrix.org> You should restore the backup right after you install yunohost. You shouldn't run the post install

But without the post install script the yunohost commands don't seem to run.
[13:29:24] <captainhonora> Yunohost command not found
[13:31:15] <captainhonora> I need it to be able to run yunohost backup restore
[13:41:20] <miro5001> > <@captainhonora:matrix.org> Yunohost command not found

- What did you do so far?
- Can you share the full command and output?

I reinstalled yunohost debian 11 without doing the post install script, mounted my drive that contains the backup .tar, and copied the file
[13:45:42] <captainhonora> I'm stuck at running this:
yunohost backup restore <archivename>
[13:47:46] <captainhonora> Trying to follow the instructions in https://doc.yunohost.org/admin/backups/
[13:47:49] <captainhonora> https://aria.im/_bifrost/v1/media/download/AfByiDs1GSbncOIPmH5TdN64uiS6HJIs9Axwd113bb1v9H1Fj0l71G6XkBgDS0kSf6OPR321phLHXWxISiudvBVCeYcDBHogAG1hdHJpeC5vcmcvUk1YY2pacW1SeFRNemNwT1NUS2poVG9o
[13:48:55] <miro5001> `yunohost backup list `?
[13:49:52] <captainhonora> The backup is not in the required folder though
[13:56:06] <captainhonora> I must have messed up the installation, it's missing yunohost itself (the yunohost.backup/archives folder does not exist).
[13:58:23] <rodinux> Perhaps you just have to create it manually `mkdir -p /home/yunohost.backup/archives`
[13:59:36] <rodinux> You must put then the files backup.tar and info.json
[14:00:26] <captainhonora> Just did it
[14:01:04] <captainhonora> Btw I don't understand why when I type ls there is nothing, and ls -a does not show the /home folder even though it exists.
[14:01:26] <captainhonora> I can cd to it but it does not show on ls
[14:02:57] <captainhonora> https://aria.im/_bifrost/v1/media/download/AXSJoC5xHpcrRb6orK8ZK2RK-uMYMHmLeAiJ-ClcquUtRteVIgYwKo3JbOiVJEG6abddnZyw2fOroAV7CLBiJBdCeYcD4mAwAG1hdHJpeC5vcmcvUkNsUG1nRlpqelFBQWZtdGx2a2xFcWVH
[14:05:31] <rodinux> nothing in the folder home root but if `ls -a /home/yunohost.backup/archives` ?
[14:07:02] <rodinux> but the binarie yunohost not seems be listen... `which yunohost` ??
[14:07:10] <captainhonora> https://aria.im/_bifrost/v1/media/download/AXhAmb-z-Xp-kqQpAE-q8A78sZfaRZKIKi2O1-KB8aWsvAby2TtYeF6T-s021w9sWwXQ5cynnYGvU8z9tX--WRNCeYcEICMQAG1hdHJpeC5vcmcvRGpSVFFxbXJyS29kdW1DS3pweU1pWHNq

Bullseye 11.2
[14:08:03] <captainhonora> I tried 12 bookworm but I was running into other issues while trying to restore the backup
[14:08:15] <captainhonora> Spent all day on this 😞
[14:08:32] <captainhonora> I should have not tried to upgrade
[14:21:32] <miro5001> > <@captainhonora:matrix.org> I should have not tried to upgrade

You'll have to, one day or the other
[14:22:21] <miro5001> You should open a thread on the forum with as much details as possible.
[14:22:48] <miro5001> It will get fixed
[14:23:10] <miro5001> But it may take some time
[16:28:44] <miro5001> > <@captainhonora:matrix.org> I tried 12 bookworm but I was running into other issues while trying to restore the backup

Try reinstalling yunohost 12 then `yunohost backup restore your_backup_name --system ` then from the webadmin restore the apps one by one
[20:44:13] <captainhonora> will I lose the content of the apps though?
[21:09:09] <miro5001> > <@captainhonora:matrix.org> will I lose the content of the apps though?

You said that you have a full backup, so don't loose it
[21:10:45] <captainhonora> But I mean is there a way to restore the content of apps from the backup?
[21:12:31] <captainhonora> If I don't run the post install I don't have the backup restore command. If I do run the post install I can restore backup but it fails with a permission error
[21:14:34] <captainhonora> Backup: command not found
[21:14:58] <captainhonora> I will try the forums because I feel really stuck.
