Backup/restore of a project in WORKSPACE

HI.

I’d like to migrate a project and all its associated attached files from one workspace server to another.

I did a full export on server 1 and then restored the GZ file to a server(2) with the SAME name/admin user account/IP address.

ALL my folders came back under documents but there is NO sign of the Project

How can I migrate JUST a project

Thanks

Ivan

Hello @ivan
Unfortunately, there’s no way to migrate only one module. The Workspace restoration process takes all data from the backup file.

So, we need to focus on checking the root cause of the issue. Could you please share Community server and Control Panel logs folders from the new server once the migration process has been completed? First of all, we need svcBackup.log file, but entire folder is better.

One more thing, please confirm that both portals have the same component versions (Community server, Control Panel, etc.). This is critical for a successful migration. Also let us know your exact OS and Workspace installation type (docker\packages).
