Errors after moving MB sever to another PC

[altramarine 21]

Hello!

 

I decided to move my current Media Browser Server to another, better equipped, PC.

Here are the steps I've taken:

• installed MB server on another Windows 7 PC
• canceled out half way through the initial setup
• closed MB from the taskbar
• As per THIS post, copied C:\users\username\appdata\roaming\MediaBrowser-Server\ from old to new PC, same location (deleted the existing, fresh MediaBrowser-Server folder)
• started MB
• made sure, the locations to my existing library are correct (has not changed)

 

The server starts and seems to work for the most part.

However, here are a few things that are happening:

 

• when new content is added:no metadata, backdrops or any other files are added
• forcing "Chapter imagne extraction", I receive an error "Chapter image extraction failed. database disk image is malforrmed database disk image is malformed"
• in webclient browser, clicking some existing movies/show, results in a popup with the same error: "database disk image is malforrmed database disk image is malformed"

 

Any idea what can be done to connect the database?

 

Many thanks!

we don't really have a documented procedure at this point. i also would like to build a backup and restore function.

 

but until we have either of those, i'm afraid the only reliable migration process is just a fresh install.

Thanks for a super speedy response!

Would this help me at all: LINK

 

If not, then a fresh reload, followed by re-registering all the add-ons, and re-doing settings?

Not a big deal, just making sure before I jump into this.

 

many thanks!

All good to go, just re-installed, reconfigured.

Made me go through the new features, which are awesome:)

 

Thank you!
