Recently we updated from ML-7.03 to ML - 8.07, but ran into some issues and had to revert back to ML-7. Unfortunately when we took the backup of the entire ML directory which had ML-7, we didn't realize that the forest data was not part of the installation directory. As such when we have reverted back to ML-7, we are seeing the following error.
XDMP-FORESTERR: Error in startup of forest "ABC-DE-001": XDMP-CORRUPT: read D:\Forest\Forests\ABC-DE-001\00003980: File corrupt, bad triple value index version, version=1
Please suggest what could have gone wrong, and how to fix this issue, as we don't have the backup of ML-7 with us to fall back to.
Regards Amit

If you have access to MarkLogic Support, I would suggest creating a support ticket to discuss what issues you had with 8.0.7 and whether you can find a way to move forward with 8.0.7. You would generally always want to use the most recent versions, especially after upgrading the data and lack a backup from the previous version.
If that turns out not to be feasible, they can help investigate alternative methods of extracting the data from your 8.0.7 forests and trying to load back into 7.0.3. For instance, using MLCP Direct Access to extract documents from the 8.0.7 forests into an archive and then import the archive into 7.0.3.
