Hi Mahendar,

The "No local file specified" error most often shows if you did not select the file on the import page. Before clicking the "Restore" button, be sure you have clicked the file so it is highlighted blue.

As a sidenote, the XML backup can be resource intensive, and does not contain a complete backup of all your data (e.g. third-party apps will not be included). Instead, we recommend backing up and migrating data by copying the database and Confluence home directory. For details, see Restoring a Test Instance from Production.

I hope this helps!

For upgrade we are able to do only XML restoration. Is there any other way for that?
