Hi !

Did you try this ? http://www.openacs.org/doc/openacs-5-2/snapshot-backup.html

There is an error, from disaster recovery procedure as it is not stated that you must recreate the database with the following command : createdb -E UNICODE $OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME. This is the same procedure when you first installed your system.

I did some tests and it works for me.
