<![CDATA[After updating BaseRow to 1.29.2 The login screen asks me to create a new user and No databases exist.]]>I have tried to restore to the backup before the update, and get this error in Postgresql the app errors out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I will have serious issues in 11 hours if i cannot get this back running.:

even after restarting the postgres service I could not get a success restore

hence Until I rebooted, i was not able to clone from an existing backup and get the clone of the app to show me the usual login screen after a success dump.

After rebooting, backup restore from a clone went just fine.

This certainly would narrow the issue angle. If the database sql dump is already mostly empty, we at least know the restore logic isn't the issue.

I'm not sure how I can confirm this tho, but no matter what I restore, all I get is an empty Baserow

Honestly a bit worried because one of these were a journalist project about to launch

trying a restore now with a postgres service restart

I also tried to re-install and restore from the backup just previous to the update. It was about 1/3 of the size of my other backups, and did not work. I ended up restoring a backup from the previous day, and pushing my saved data from the form view to rebuild the day's work. It sucked, but got us back going.

I plan to retry the update this weekend (With a full VMS backup beforehand). Has anyone else had this issue?

Seems like there is some dangling connection preventing the restore
