Cant access project tab in some projects after migration instances

Summary

I have two instance of gitlab in ubuntu servers, 14.04 and 16.04, i need move the all informatión for 14.04 to 16.04. the backup is restored "fine" but in some projects i cant access to tab "project", but if i change the url for issues or MR all information is it,activity, labels, users, commits, all, but the tab "project" shows 500 error.

Steps to reproduce

  • Same gitlab versión 8.12.4. ✅

  • backup created fine ✅

  • restore gitlab backup with command sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:restore BACKUP=XXXX ✅

  • gitlab backup restore fine ✅

  • get to any project(not all) and show 500 error server. ☠
