Hi Emmanuel, The process sounds correct, but as Olivier mentioned, you may want to restore to a DSpace 3.x instance (since you exported from 3.1). After the restore, you can then upgrade to DSpace 4.2.
Also, a few of the arguments to your restore command don't look correct: -e dspace@localhost The "-e" argument specifies the EPerson in DSpace to run the command as. Is there really an EPerson named "dspace@localhost" in your DSpace? -i 1/0 The "-i" argument specifies the identifier of the object under which the content should be restored. When performing a full site restore, this identifier should end in "/0" (which is what you have). But, you should specify your Handle prefix before the "/0" (i.e. the value of "handle.prefix" in your dspace.cfg file). Is your "handle.prefix" value really "1"? If not, this "-i" argument value should be changed to "[handle.prefix]/0" If you are still having issues, please check your logs for specific error messages, and send those errors to this mailing list. Some notes on locating errors in logs are at: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Troubleshoot+an+error More notes on the restore command are in the AIP documentation at: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC4x/AIP+Backup+and+Restore#AIPBackupandRestore-RestoringEntireSite - Tim On 5/11/2015 1:35 AM, Emmanuel Wilson wrote: > Hello all..... > > i backup zip entire site files using AIP command which includes > backup.zip communities, collections and items. > > then i restore it in to another PC (dspace 4.2) using restore command : > ./dspace packager -r -a -f -t AIP -e dspace@localhost -i 1/0 > /home/dspace/backup/backup.zip > > actually i tried to restore files from dspace 3.1 to dspace 4.2 .
