I did a backup of my site before I upgraded to the latest version of the discourse however I can’t even access my site any more even though the upgrade appears to be successful as no error is displayed. Is there anyway that I can restore my site from the backup that I created earlier from terminal app as I can’t access the site?

1. Is it possible?

2. If yes, where do discourse save or store the backups that I executed from the admin panel?

3. Is there any guide on how to restore the site from backup?

Thanks
