Hi All,

I am getting error while applying the NPrinting backup. I have taken backup from old server which is old domain. Now I have installed NPringting server on new domain and applied the licenses. After that trying to restore the backup. Please find the below error screenshot with command which i am using.

these are the command which i am using to apply the backup.

cd C:\Program Files\NPrintingServer\Tools\Manager

Qlik.Nprinting.Manager.exe restore -f C:\NPrintingBackups\NP_Backup.zip -p "C:\Program Files\NPrintingServer\pgsql\bin" --pg-password Mypwd

Could you please help on this to resolve the issue.

Hi,

Are you using the same Qlik NPrinting version between old and new server ?

No, different NPrinting version and domain different.

Ok that's why, when you restore a backup, the NPrinting version need to be the same as before

Okay Thank you.

Do we need Admin account to take the NP backup?
