          You copy raw MongoDB files to same version of MongoDB database server raw file directory, start MongoDB, do mongodump, restore to Wekan Snap or Wekan Docker

              Yes, you just copy your wekan-db directory with those raw mongodb database files to another computer where you have working mongodb of same version

                                    It seems there is checksum errors, so most likely that data is corrupted

                                      I would recommend restoring from your previous backup. If you really need some data from those files, you could look at them with hex editor, or linux command "strings somefilename"

                                              @dmitrii Oh nice that repair did work. Please check that you did not lose some part of data when repairing.

                                                Hi there,m I'm new to this community, just now starting to integrate Wekan in my company's Workflow. Before we've been using Trello, but we've heard from customers they weren't okay with Trello because it's not a swiss company and we deal with a lot of sensitive data. So far, I'm loving Wekan lots.
