Description

Obtain .tar.gz backup from existing Discourse admin panel, upload to Netcup, run restore script. Requires coordination with whoever manages the current instance.

Implementation Notes

Completed 2026-02-10:

  • Backup restored via Discourse admin UI
  • Migrations ran successfully (dozens of schema migrations from older version)
  • Redis crashed during restore (OOM) causing 500 errors
  • Fixed by restarting unicorn + redis services inside container
  • All community.cadcad.org content now imported
