Restore from 32bits to 64 bits fail

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

Hi guys,

i made a backup of my Home Assistant running on Raspberry PI 4 4GB to restore it to 64 bits installation.

I don’t manage to restore my whole configuration, it keeps running forever (2h+). I tried only the configuration and it keeps running forever too.
I made a new installation and tried partial restore and i can restore every addon but i cannot restore the configuration.

I try to open the archive and recover the yaml by hand but i didn’t manage to do it.
I tested this GitHub - cogneato/ha-decrypt-backup-tool and also Decrypt Home Assistant backups ; the later give me a successfull decrypt but still 7zip cannot open it.

What would be my next steps ?
Thanks

Just tried the same today. I had to do a

ha supervisor repair

in the console, followed by a reboot.

You mean that you do a full restore then go physically on your Raspberry with keyboard and screen and run the cmdlet :slight_smile: ?

Actually, I restored a backup from my Pi2 to a am64 virtualbox.

It works !
After restoring only addon to my new AH instance, i ran the addon “Advanced SSH & Web Terminal”, logged in SSH, restored my config, went to ssh and did
ah supervisor repair
ah core check
ah core start

and now i have it running… What a day.

Might be worth filing a bug report in GitHub with all information you have. Feels like this should be something that the restore should run itself.
