Im trying to restore a database backup from one SpiraTeam environment to another. I followed the instruction mentioned in the Q&A (running SQL scripts and changing the web.config, restoring the attachments directory). When I try to logon I get this error message (see stacktrace at the bottom): Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Invalid column name IS_BUSY. Invalid column name IS_AWAY. Invalid column name UNREAD_MESSAGES. Invalid column name AVATAR_MIME_TYPE. My assumption is that the backup file was from another version of SpiraTeam. The Database_Revision value is 400 in the backup I try to restore but 410 in the existing database Im trying to replace with the backup. I also tried to run the Update_v4.1.0.3 and the DatabasePatcher.exe to align the restored database with the new version of SpiraTeam but that results in the following error message: Error occurred during installation - ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN failed because column ESTIMATE_POINTS does not exist in table TST_REQUIREMENT. Does anyone know what Im doing wrong here? Stacktrace: [SqlException (0x80131904): Invalid column name IS_BUSY. Invalid column name IS_AWAY. Invalid column name UNREAD_MESSAGES.

You need to instead: Uninstall v4.1 from the new server Install v4.0 on the new server Delete the sample database Now restore back your v4.0 database Then run the v4.1 MSI installation package on top of your existing installation to upgrade the application and database to v4.1.
