Re: Restoring backup

 

Hello Dr. Ifeanyi
The shortest approach is to install pgAdmin in Ubuntu and use it to restore the backup. You can actually install pgAdmin or phppgadmin in Ubuntu and use one of them to create and restore backups.

Lungo

Hi Ifeany,

I forward this to the developer list, which is a good place to direct 
such issues. You should create an account and join the list here:
https://launchpad.net/~dhis2-devs

I leave it to someone with more expertise to help with the backup 
restoration.
