$ java -Dbitbucket.home="<path/to/new_bitbucket_home>" -Djdbc.override="false" -jar <path/to/backup/client>/bitbucket-restore-client.jar <path/to/backup/file>/bitbucket-20140107-024714-807.tarThe following appears in the <path/to/backup/client>/log/atlassian-sbc-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM.log:

The MySQL JDBC driver is missing from <path/to/backup/client>/jdbc directory.
Resolution
Download the MySQL JDBC driver from the link under the Download and install the JDBC driver section and place it into the <path/to/backup/client>/jdbc.
Make sure that backup-config.properties is configured with jdbc.driver=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver.
Please refer to the Data recovery and backups document for more details on the restore procedure.
