Unable to Restore Backup After Fresh install
🚧
Setup
❓
Question
☑️
Ready
I am practicing the backup and restore process from the documentation
https://docs.immich.app/administration/backup-and-restore
However
, I seem to be hitting a snag
.
I have 2 instances running
: production
(2283
) and testing
(2284
)
.
Production is up and running perfectly
. I have database and library backups running daily
.
When I do a fresh install for my testing instance
, and try to restore from backup I get the error seen in the screenshot
.
What am I doing wrong
?
