Restore works only on the same version that you took backup. So you have to first download 6.8.1 from the archives[0], install it, restore and then upgrade again to latest version. fyi this is on my roadmap https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/2152 [0] https://about.gitlab.com/downloads/archives/ -- Blog: http://axilleas.me -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GitLab" group.
