I installed base number 10 redis
as well as which fields to move into this database from the old (base number 0)?
Hi @mouseluka,
As you've outlined in chat, you want to migrate your existing NodeBB data from database 0 to database 10, due to errors encountered when you attempted to upgrade NodeBB.
However, I fail to see why moving your data from database 0 to 10 would resolve any issues, you would still run into the same errors as before.
What errors do you see when you run NodeBB on database 0?
node app --setup
after all of steps write next:
Which database to use (0..n) (0)

If you do sequentially https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB
and specify the base 0

Please go into upgrade.js and find the line that reads like this:
thisSchemaDate = new Date(2014, 1, 14, 21, 50).getTime();
Then add this right above it: return next();
Then try running ./nodebb upgrade again.
return next();
Added to line 635
return next ();

@mouseluka My mistake, please add it above the line that reads:
thisSchemaDate = new Date(2014, 1, 14, 20, 50).getTime();
Thanks, it helped restore forum)
Phew! Glad to hear it @mouseluka
