<p dir="auto">My current dedi server provider went out of business, so my existing Proxmox host is -- poof -- gone. Time to restore Cloudron from backups. My challenge:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p dir="auto">On a new Cloudron install, when going to the UI initially and clicking the restore option, seemingly no combination of relative paths will be accepted by the form.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto">Leaving it blank doesn't work, obviously. But neither does /{bucket name} or /{bucket name}/{prefix} or {/{bucket name}/ {snapshots}</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">Clearly, the form wants a file name at the end of that path. But the examples in the doc all show restoring from a tarball rather than an incremental rsync. Within/snapshots, I have a lot of date-and-code folders and no indication of which file I should point to.</p>
<p dir="auto">Any help, much appreciated!</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>EDIT/UPDATE:</strong> Saw some success pointing it at the box folder in snapshots; it complained about a lack of version info and wouldn't restore. Turns out the entire contents of fsmetadata.json is:</p>
<pre><code>{
    "emptyDirs": [],
    "execFiles": [],
    "symlinks": []
}
</code></pre>

<p dir="auto">Can we improve the docs to make this clearer?</p>
<p dir="auto">Thanks</p>

Just ... files. SQL dumps, json files, etc.</p>
<p dir="auto">I assumed this was because it was rsync rather than something else.</p>

<p dir="auto">Is the confusion around how to fill up the backup id field in the restore UI form? This is simply <code>timestamp/box_vxx_.tar.gz</code> . It does not include the prefix . It is the path inside the prefix .</p>
