Restore databases

หมายเหตุ: บทความนี้ยังเป็นภาษาอังกฤษ เนื่องจากคำแปลภาษาไทยกำลังอยู่ระหว่างจัดทำ

Purpose

Replace both databases from a verified .emubackup package.

Audience

Framework administrators responsible for recovery.

Prerequisites

A validated .emubackup, application stop/start access, and a copy of the current databases.

Procedure

1. Validate the package in System Maintenance.
2. Stop the application and keep the current databases as an additional copy.
3. On Windows run RestoreDatabase.cmd "C:\path\backup.emubackup".
4. For Docker, extract the validated database files into the stopped emu-data volume using an administrative container.
5. Restore the original integration secret key to .emu-secret.key beside designer.db, or to EMU_SECRET_KEY_PATH, before starting the app.
6. Start the app and verify login, apps, recent records, and Settings → SMTP Settings.
7. Select Verify connection and send a test email. If the original key is unavailable, save the SMTP password again to encrypt it with the new key.

Never replace a live SQLite file by copying over it. Restore both databases from the same package. Do not assume .emubackup contains the integration secret key; it must be recovered separately.
