Describe your issue
Hi,
I am merging three YNH servers into one. The same apps are already installed on all servers, but with different domains and content. For example, I have installed the Nextcloud app and the my_webapp app on each server. When I back up the apps, copy them to the target server and want to unpack the backup there, conflicts arise with the second nextcloud and the second my_webapp. Of course, this ID already exists!
Can I manually rename the ID ‘nextcloud’ to ‘nextcloud__1’ from the CLI, for example?
That really depends on what app you are dealing with.
If it’s a my_webapp, that woudln’t be hard. Extract the backup on your pc, look for /apps/$app/settings/settings.yml. Try to be consistent. The app id, is used for install_dir, data_dir, db_name and db_user. Look also for any config file that needs to be adapted to the new changes.
Repack it and send it back to the server to be restored.
Make sure you have the list of app ids on your server : yunohost app list | grep id
@jarod5001 Oh, thank you – that sounds good. I’ll give it a try. Yes, at the moment it only affects my_webapp. I’m setting up the nextcloud again anyway. It was just a test system. But in principle, that would have caused a conflict too. But now let’s move on to my_webapp
