We recently changed our backup script config to include --hex-blob e.g.
/usr/bin/mysqldump --verbose --hex-blob --max-allowed-packet=64M --debug-info --quick --single-transaction
May be relevant.
Cheers

I am beginning to think that this is more of a db issue than a Sakai, but still posting it here hoping someone had successfully restored Sakai data from a backup and will share how they managed to do this.
I backup a db (using Sakai 2.5 schema), restored it in a new db. There were no errors when restoring, then ran the migration scripts to Sakai 2.6 schema. I am able to use the data from the backup, except for those data stored as blob type, like resources/files uploaded to Sakai.
ex.
When clicking on the images already uploaded, it is not rendered.
After downloading document files from the application, the files cannot be opened.
I believe this has been done successfully. I will appreciate it very much any advice.
Thanks a lot,
Leo
