Hi Team, I am facing the above issue at startup. I tried manual backup by copying all the files inside the volume like schema.db, classification.sb,classess files etc and paste it in the new machine. When I tried to startup the instance it show the above error. if I remove schema.db,classification.db ,migration1.filter3 search file and again start then started successfully, But Can’t get the backup data. Kindly help on this

Looks like weaviate doesn’t have access to schema.db

How are you running Weaviate?
