Just so you know, though, it won’t keep your data

TL;DR
A user is experiencing a gateway timeout error while trying to restore an old version of an application. They question the difference between `docker compose start` and `docker compose up -d`. Another user suggests trying the restoration process step by step instead of going directly to the latest version. There is also a suggestion to take a backup of the current install before restoring the old one. No definitive solution is provided in the thread.

docker compose down -v will delete the volumes, so there’s not a whole lot of point in keeping the original directory

You could take a backup of the current install before restoring the old one

The old one has the data I need

We've not done much with the new since all it has been showing were errors

You did the migration, right?

What version did you migrate to 1.4.1 from?

David

1.3.7 or 1.3.8

David

Not so sure

David

You didn’t go direct, did you?

But saw an error related to _metadata

I think I saw someone else had this?

ideclon

But anyway, did you go direct or step by step? So 1.3.7 to 1.3.8 to 1.4.0 to 1.4.1?

David

Ooops, I went direct

David

I have followed the instructions to restore but I get gateway timeout

It can take a few minutes for Appwrite to be available after running docker compose up -d

David

Oh really?

David
4 Sep, 2023, 14:48

docker compose start and docker compose up -d

David
4 Sep, 2023, 14:49

Which one is better?

David
4 Sep, 2023, 14:51

docker compose logs appwrite seems to be good

ideclon

Doesn’t start only start up already built containers? And up creates them

David
4 Sep, 2023, 14:55

Ooops!
