WebGISDR from windows to linux

Hi,

In 11.0 and previous releases webgisdr documentation, we see a warning note stating that OS migrations are not supported, ie. from windows to linux and viceversa using webgisdr. We dont see that note in 11.1 documentation.

Are these OS migrations supported from 11.1?

I tried in a test environment and there seems to be a problem with paths, confusing backwards and forward slashes.

Thank you!

It's not supported, regardless of the Enterprise version, like the doc mentions. Windows and linux have different file structures, and there's not a way to have the backup be able to handle switching from one to the other.
