Thanks!
Indeed I found some backups at the /var/discourse/shared/standalone/backups/default
folder, which sounds hopeful.
However, according to the Restore a Backup from the Command Line guide, the container needs to be running to import the database, but the ./launcher enter app
command fails:
x86_64 arch detected.
WARNING: containers/app.yml file is world-readable. You can secure this file by running: chmod o-rwx containers/app.yml
Error response from daemon: No such container: app
I guess I should I start with a clean installation. Is there a guide to clean and start over? Would the following be correct?
- Copy the backups from
/var/discourse/shared/standalone/backups/default
folder to a different location outside/var/discourse
folder - Remove the
/var/discourse
folder - Install Discourse from scratch following the Install Cloud guide to have a new running instance.
- Restore the backup with the GUI or with the command line guide above
