Plugins » Katello

katello-restore fails on restoring backend data. I am using Katello 3.2 (Foreman 1.13.3) and CentOS Linux release 7.3.1611 (Core).

Steps to reproduce:
1.) Install katello
2.) Set admin password
3.) katello-backup
4.) katello-restore

katello-restore gives me the following output:
@[root@katello1 katello-backup-2017-01-03T09:39:40-05:00]# katello-restore .
WARNING: This script will drop and restore your database.
Your existing installation will be replaced with the backup database.
Once this operation is complete there is no going back.
Are you sure(Y/N)? Y
