Problem Description

Issue

We restored a scheduled backup and are now unable to start the Application. The logs are empty.

Reproduction Steps

  • Stop the server
  • Restore scheduled backup
  • Try to start the server

Edit:
Figured it out … AMP removes the rights to execute after backup restore.
Before and after restore:

Resolved the problem. Maybe you should try to fix the issue in your code.

It’s a known issue already yeah. From memory it might be related to how Docker+AMP handle permissions, or alternatively the executable flag is removed from files when they’re added to a backup as a security measure (in which case it would need some override).

Docker shouldn’t be an issue. I suspect AMP is not preserving attributes in the backup. Easily verified by inspecting the zip
