Setting up a cloned install

Bahlsen is struggling to set up a cloned forum and is seeking help from experienced Discourse sysadmins. The issue is related to email verification not working in a cloned forum.

codinghorror asks why Admin, Backups isn’t working, and Bahlsen explains it’s due to an issue with an SQL error during import. sam acknowledges it as a bug that needs to be fixed.

Bahlsen asks if it’s possible to get the cloned install working from a snapshot, but later realizes the bug is still causing issues. The error is related to a duplicated key during the restore process.

Eventually, Bahlsen thanks elberet for helping to get the backup working.

Why doesn’t Admin, Backups work?

Because of this issue

May I should add, that I have tried this on a 100% clean install, with matching version numbers.

So no chance of getting this to work from a snapshot?

Edit:
Seems I hit a limit of 8 mails in 8 hours …
