After a fresh install of 7.0.7.4829, I attempted to restore a system backup (using the Web GUI) from a 7.0.6.4769 installation. After doing so, the Web GUI hangs at the Starting message. When I fire up the Ignition Gateway Control Utility, my Gateway Status reads Context is faulted. I’ve attached my wrapper.log, hope it helps … [wrapper.log](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/1X/2552c6b4c7fe011524b8229029f6ee7b44e69924.log) (47.9 KB) ---

Yes, we’re having some problems with file locking with the internal database that are making restores intermittently problematic. We have made some changes already that should alleviate this problem. You can clear out the /contexts/main/db folder and try the restore again (this shouldn’t happen every time), or you can restore manually by opening up the backup file (_.gwbk) in a program like 7-zip and manually coping the internal db files (db/settings._) into the contexts/main/db folder. Sorry for the hassle, ---

No problem, just encountered this in my development environment … I’ll try what you’ve recommended at some point later today and reply to this thread if I encounter any other abnormalities … Thanks.
