Bonita Portal form does not run after recovering database tables

Q&A
1

Hello,

I ran a database backup script to recover the tables in my database. After recovering the tables, my form in the Bonita Portal does not run. I get this error: Error while getting the form page list. My form ran before I recovered the database tables. Does anyone know why I’m getting this error after running the database backup?

Excellent, good work.

Interesting, and thanks for the advisory.

The only thing I can think of is there is mis-syncrhonization between BDM and Normal databases.

They are in two separate places from what I believe.
You may have to look there as well.

I’m assuming you followed the instructions to backup here…

Maybe you also need to restore the Bonita_Home as well?

I’m still learning about Bonitasoft and the installation process. What do you mean by BDM? When you say, BDM and Normal databases are in separate places, do you know where?

I forgot to mention that I am using the Community Edition so I do not think BDM is available. Thus, could this still be a possible factor to my problem?

BDM is available…what version are you using?

version 6.3.2

I fixed the issue. The methodology that I was using to restore the database was incorrect. I was opening the backup file in mySQL and running the script. This caused some corruption in my database. I’ve created a restore database batch file. My forms are running now.
