Redis Personal Data?

[Richard Knoche]

Hi, I am working with an old forum. I am thinking about doing a redis dump. But before doing this I would like to know if it is likely that the redis contains personal data? Like email address....

@Richard-Knoche an old NodeBB forum on Redis?

Yes, we store emails in the database

Yes an old NodeBB forum using redis

Thanks for the answer. I have another question: when updating from nodeBB version 1.6.1. to the latest, are there some data structure changes? If the database version is still compatible would I have to touch the database?

@Richard-Knoche there definitely are, but running ./nodebb upgrade would take care of them, assuming the database can still be connected to.
