What issue do you have?

Hi,

I want to switch to a new NextCloud. First, I tried to copy the Joplin-Folder to the new NextCloud. Joplin started to sync everything again, it took hours. I stopped the synchronisation and tried to upload everything from Joplin to the new NextCloud.

Again, after more the 16 hours of synchronisation I got an error and the synchronisation started again.

I also tried to upload to an OneDrive-Account. Same problem the first synchronisation is very slow.

Now, after almost 2 days, I still don't have a working Joplin instance. And I have to sync many other devices. :frowning: It is very frustrating.

Is there a way to migrate to the new Server without a whole new sync?

Best regards
Kay

P.S. My Joplin-Folder has a size of 2 GB with 3120 notes.

Is there a way to migrate to the new Server without a whole new sync?

Yes:

  • Copy the complete data from the old sync target to the new one
  • Open Joplin and switch to the new sync target

Before doing this you should make sure that Joplin is fully synced to the old sync target, and also keep a full copy of your data as a JEX file for backup

This was my first attempt, without luck. It starts syncing again all notes. Now, I sync again with the old NextCloud, but again, all notes have to by synced. After that, I will try it again.

Still syncing (> 5h), I changed nothing.

The sync-status said: Total items: 33897/28224??? Why?
