Migrate 1.13.1 to a different docker

I was hoping migrating docker servers would be as simple as pasting my homarr folder on the new host, but it just ran the initial onboarding and wiped my data. Is there anyway to export from 1.13.1 and then import to a new host? I have been googling and trying AI but only seem to find anything on migrating prior to V 1. Thank you in advance #---------------------------------------------------------------------# Homarr - A simple, yet powerful dashboard for your server. # #---------------------------------------------------------------------# services: homarr: container_name: homarr image: ghcr.io/homarr-labs/homarr:latest restart: unless-stopped volumes: - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock # Optional, only if you want docker integration - ./appdata:/appdata environment: - SECRET_ENCRYPTION_KEY= *REDACTED** ports: - '7575:7575'
Solution:
Hi, please copy both the secret encryption key and the whole appdata directory to the new host. All data will be copied if you do so. Are you having difficulties with that?...

Not at all, I'll try it doing it again apparently it did not like the ./appdata entry, put the full path and inside appdata folder did a chown -R root:root * and everything is migrated and working now! thank you! sorry to bother
