I’ve found it… problem is that a folder containing attachments for import **MUST** be inside Docker app in patch /var/www/discourse/…/tmp/attachments

Now it’s OK script is going on, it will finish in ~1.5h

edit: It seems that again import attachments not working… im currently at 78% of import, and in every post where we had some picture or attachments stay [ATTACH]9788[/ATTACH] and number between tags and number of uploaded so next one is [ATTACH]9789[/ATTACH]…

Any help with this will be glad 😕
