              @sdetweil WOW!

              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:

              0|MagicMir |     at node:internal/deps/undici/undici:13392:13

              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!

                @sdetweil
                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!

                  @rkorell said in Restore script cannot create Backup folder?:

                  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”)

                  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…
