Restore Appwrite after upgrading (with skipping multiple version)
Well, this is my time ! Ive upgraded my Apprite instance (self-hosted) in my Docker Desktop in Windows without upgrading one-by-one version. Of course this is my bad but now the question is how recover the old Appwrite instance. During the upgrading a message said that a backup was going to be made. So I guess a backup is somewhere in my disk
TL;DR
The user upgraded their Appwrite instance without upgrading one version at a time and now wants to recover their old instance. They are looking for a backup file that should have been made during the upgrade process. The user is unsure where to find the backup file. One solution that was suggested is to downgrade to version 1.3.8, run the migration command, then upgrade to version 1.4.3 and run the migration command again.
What version to what version, did you run the migration script?
What issues are you having with the new version you've upgraded to?
1.3.7 -> 1.4.3 Ivce run this command🫣 :
TypeScript
docker run -it --rm `
--volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock `
--volume ${pwd}/appwrite:/usr/src/code/appwrite:rw `
--entrypoint="upgrade" `
appwrite/appwrite:1.4.3
well i dont find any backup file
arhh Im done
as mentioned in general, only the docker-compose.yml and .env files are backed up, not your whole instance
if this is all you did...you might be able to:
- downgrade to 1.3.8
- run the migrate command
- upgrade to 1.4.3
- run the migrate command
