This sounds very much like what happened.
All the data copied, but some of the config files did not.
That's a major (and non obvious) issue if you are trying to restore a server.
Note on the wiki:
"Full restore
To run a full restore of user and configuration data, run on the Affa server
affa --full-restore <JOB> [<ARCHIVE>]"
No mention that newer files will not get overwritten. My guess is that this
would potentially fail on ANY restore to a newly installed server ??
Ironic as I have used rise lots of times, but never restore.
Needs investigation and clearer options, especially in light of people looking
to upgrade from v8 to v9
