On Linux systems you can skip the copy and just run it on the databases while the node is running. Copying the entire folder is never a good idea as that would copy all the data as well.
Sorry to hijack your thread. I was having this exact issue and worked my way through setting up everything on an older RP 2 with no issues (except not being able to run a node.) So i have a RP 4 2gb and itâs running ubuntu server with an attached 750gb usb drive. Everything works fine, node is online. I had been eliminating steps as issues and one of the last was setting up port forwarding:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 28967 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 28967 -j ACCEPT
sudo ufw allow 28967 comment âStorj Networkâ
So the internal web page was staying âOfflineâ and I knew is was because I didnât have the firewall rules added yet. My router was updated. As soon as I added the rules above, I rebooted and the internal web page went online fine. Except i couldnât ssh into the RP 4 anymore. Wha?
Since I am running in headless mode right now with no keyboard, I tried to add a blank ssh text file to the boot sd card and previous attempts and it never worked. Is there an issue with firewall rules and ssh? I can ping the RP fine and if I connect a monitor to the RP, I see its at the ubuntu login screen which it should be. I guess i need to snag a keyboard and try to restart the ssh server.
Is it possible that I need to add a rule to allow access to port 22 for ssh?
Thanks for listening to me ramble.

Yes you need to setup ssh to accept if you enabled a firewall you have to.
Awesome, thanks for the update. Something like:
sudo ufw allow ssh?
Nb
Yes or sudo ufw allow 22
Both are pretty much the same unless you changed the default port.
