Help restoring a backup made my copying the database dir

I was running neo4j on a server in 2020/21 so I assume that I was using the latest server version at the time, I made an adhoc backup one day by copying the db dir. The server is gone now so I dont know the specific version that was running.

Is it possible for me to restore this db from this "backup"? If so, how do I determine which server version and what steps to take, etc.?

The backup folder structure is

  • certificates
  • data
    • databases
    • dbms
      • auth
  • import (empty)
  • plugins
    • README.tx

Thanks

I figured it out.

I tried to import it (copy the data dir) to an old 3.3.x install and I got an error about the upgrade option being disabled. Turned that on and got another error about not being able to downgrade, I was trying to import a db version of v0.A.9 to v0.A.8. I found this thread on how to download older versions of the desktop app Older versions download archive I made a 3.5 db, imported the files and I have the data
