Geonetwork export/import from v3.8.1 to v4.4.6

Just installed a geonetwork 4.4.6 on a rocky linux 9 server (default settings). Installation went well, geonetwork runs fine. The goal is to migrate from our current geonetwork v3.8.1 (using H2 as database). I did do an export of some catalogs via export - zip and then imported those zips in the new v4.4.6 version (other server). This also went fine, see IRCEL-CELINE. But now I’m puzzled … the geonetwork data folder is empty (?) and it seems that no H2 database is created neither (no gn.h2.db file on the server).
Anonyone having a clue?

Hi! You can take a look at the Dashboard & status > Information page in the administration module, it will tell you what folders are used by GeoNetwork for storing attachments and what kind of database is used. If it is indeed a H2 database being used, the file path will appear in the JDBC connection URL.

This should answer your questions :slight_smile:
