Restore script cannot create Backup folder?

rkorell

nearly all is working!

Some local modifications are not catched (e.g. datafile for birthdaylist (to illustrate what I mean - you are somewhat familiar with birthdaylist :-) ) ).

For unknown reasons “MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda” is not showing up - I may have to apply the fix I had seen somehow (have NOT to use this fix on my Pi4 with same mirror version (2.30.0))
Calendar fetches are present (checked log) so it seems an error in C3A …

By checking log I found a never seen error:

is this related to auto-update?

And another question: On my other Mirror a restart happens when I write config.js back to raspi - this doesn’t happen on new system - can I enable this with a parameter somehow I have missed?

Thanks a LOT for your great script and your effort behind!

sorry, still another question…
Your backup-script has stored the famous MMM-Pir (bugsounet’s) on my git-repository.
The restore script does not restore this directory (I guess because the origin git repo doesn’t exist anymore - which makes sense).
But I would at least try to get this up and running again…

Can I restore this directory manually?
And if possible is this done with a fully qualified path or somehow different?
(meaning “https://github.com/rkorell/MagicMirror/tree/main/MMM-Pir”)

so would my command be:

git clone https://github.com/rkorell/MagicMirror/tree/main/MMM-Pir

or

git clone https://github.com/rkorell/MagicMirror/MMM-Pir

Or do I have to transfer my tar file to the new raspi and unpack it there?

Thanks for guidance!

you could edit the MM_backup/module_list file and change the url
and then restore from the local MM_backup to test

if good then do another backup to make a new tag of the updated state (with the corrected url)

@sdetweil Thanks.
IN the meantime I’ve figured out that the MM-Pir directorry in github repo (backup) only contains four files, so is useless for restoring…

oh my…

@rkorell

thanks so much for the trouble report… fixed
next execution will handle it correctly and that revision of the backup will be more accurate. I noticed that I also did not preserve the file attributes (date/time, owner, permissions) , and that is corrected too…

Dear Sam, you’re REALLY (!) welcome!

Thanks to YOU for all of your effort!
