Move Sonarr to new server

Sonarr version (exact version): 2.0.0.5228
Mono version (if Sonarr is not running on Windows): 5.12.0
OS: Freenas 11.1U4
Debug logs:
(Make sure debug logging is enabled in settings and post the full log to hastebin/pastebin/dropbox/google drive or something similar, do not post them directly here. Post in .txt not .doc, .rtf or some other formatted document)
Description of issue: I would like to move current install to a new jail after a fresh install. Following the directions here I’ve copied the config.xml and the nzbdrone.db file to the new data directory but Sonarr won’t start after service sonarr restart
I’m guessing item #7 “As long as the paths are the same, everything will pickup where it left off” is the problem. Is it possible to change the path to something new in the same OS as the original?

Sonarr not starting would not be affected by the paths changing. You’re going to have to find out if anything is being logged by Sonarr or if nothing is logged find out what is wrong with the service.

Once Sonarr is up and running you can fix the paths using the series editor (as long as you’re moving from another linux/macOS system).

Turns out I had the old instance of sonarr still running on the same port. The new version works after a restart after the old version is stopped. After copying all the nzbdrone.db, MediaCover, and config.xml it all works as before except the calendar entries are missing.
