      Hey there,

      I am excited by Cloudron!

      Unfortunately, when trying to restore from S3 Backup (with config file) I get the following message, highlighted in red, when trying to restore:

      Run "cloudron-setup --version 7.2.5" on a fresh Ubuntu installation to restore from this backup
      

      Does it mean Cloudron cannot be restored on a pre-installed cloudron instance?

      Could you please advice how I could closer to a newly running cloudron instance?

      Background info:

      • I have assinged the same (Elastic) IP to the new instance.
      • What has changed in the new instance: I wanted to use a EFS (File Storage from AWS) with Cloudron, so I created a new Instance with the mounted EFS as a volume.
      • For the new Instance I used the AWS marketplace cloudron image.

      Thanks a lot for the great work!

        Yes, the restore only works in the same version as was backed up, hence the message.

        Reinstall with that specific version to continue.

          Thank you for the fast answer!

          Okay, interesting. I just realized that the AWS Market Place image is still on version 7.2.4

          Is there any way to downgrade my current instance version?
          Or is it possible to upgrade Cloudron before configuring?
          Or does the Cloudron instance also update itself periodically without being configured?

          Your hint helped me to find the root cause, thanks

            @nottheend you can opt for a vanilla Ubuntu 22.04 and run the installer yourself, or stick with the older marketplace version and do an upgrade.

            Downgrades happen with a restore, so no otherwise.

            You'd have to do a minimal amount of configuration to be able to upgrade.

                This is indeed an oversight that the marketplace images are not updated. Will do so.

                  @girish Thank you, that helps.

                  I was unsure how I can setup cloudron with a minimal setup.

                  But I found this post which helped me:
                  How to use cloudron without a domain name or opening ports?

                  Thanks for being active in supporting in the forum guys! This is really an important arguement for cloudron for me 🙂

                    And on a side note: I couldn't do an installation of Cloudron neither on a Ubuntu 20.04 image nor on an AWS Linux with the security groups recommended by cloudron image.

                    So I will wait for the updated AWS cloudron image
