CMS 11 non-DXP - problem copying blobs from one environment to another

Vote:
 

We use CMS 11 hosted on Everweb.

We are trying to refresh one of our internal testing environments with content from another environment by simply taking a backup of the source environment database and restoring that to the target environment.

In addition to that, we copied the \App_Data\blobs folder in order to transfer all the images as well.

I am running the solution locally targeting the backup of the database and the blobs folder as set in Web.config:

<episerver.framework updateDatabaseSchema="false" createDatabaseSchema="true">
  <appData basePath="C:\dev\Atriaomat\dataa\App_Data" />
</episerver.framework>

I was expecting the blob data to be picked up and the images to show - but unfortunately they are not loading. Is there something else I should considering when moving content from one environment to another?

Does the application pool have access rights to that path? (C:\dev\Atriaomat\dataa\App_Data)

Yes, I am simply running the solution via Visual Studio and targeting a folder on a drive on the same PC, there should be no restrictions,

Do you have a web.development.config file with an alternative path perhaps? I'd still check the access rights.
