      Hello, I'm trying to migrate from a Windows installation which uses MSSQL to your (linux) docker image using postgres.

      I've managed to copy the feed folders over to the new system but I can't find a way to re-index them...

      It looks like that ability was removed in the past: https://inedo.com/support/questions/8111

      Obviously I cannot simply backup and restore the database. Is there a way forward here?

      Cheers

      Product: BuildMaster
      Version: 6.1.0

        Also, this is ProGet rather than BuildMaster. From 4.7.3 on Windows to 5.1.17 on Docker.

        I guess if the functionality was removed in 4.8 I could use the 4.7.13 image for the migration and then upgrade, although that is a bit of a pain.

          You can try setting a drop path for each feed to a temporary directory, then copy the packages into that directory.

          FYI I believe they need to be in that directory directly and not in a subdirectory.

          You can trigger the drop path monitor manually from Admin > Manage Service if it doesn't run right after copying.

            Thanks for the suggestion, it's handy to know that's possible (with a bit of scripting to move packages into the top level directory).

            It also seems to work pretty well running the Feed Cleanup under 4.7.14 and then upgrading.
