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

thanks for reply, I have broken docker container with wekan I can't start any docker services on my old VM so can I just transfer my wekan-db directory? because I can't start wekan-db docker and do backup. Have you any advise?

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

you replace those mongodb files on when mongodb is not running

and then start mongodb

and then try mongodump

can't start wekan-mongo-db container if I replace all mongodb files

if I replaced mongodb files it trigered to infinoty restarting wekan db container

but if I delete / clear back mongo-db directory it's works fine again

Does it give any errors? docker logs wekan-db

sent you a huge log in private message, check please

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"

can't open wekan mongo-db container it's always restarting / droped

fixed broken mongodb by delete mondog.lock and all diagnostic.data than start mongo with repair flag "mongod --repair" Thanks

@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.

Thanks @kristophersson and Welcome ! :)

For all Wekan users, I recommend at least daily backups https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Backup

Yippee

Hmm, I got some email about some service "year in review"

Maybe I should write similar about Wekan
