Thank you for feedback. I removed the archive temporarily.

Right!

The message just means that restore_helper.msh received more or less than 3 arguments instead of exactly three arguments. Therefore, there is something wrong with the arguments passed by back_up_db.sh. The code should be:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
ksmroot=${ksmroot:-"/mnt/onboard/.kobo/kbmenu"}
#####
sourcedir=$ksmroot/backup
sourcefilebasename=KR.sql
targetfile=mnt/onboard/.kobo/KoboReader.sqlite
#####
sh $ksmroot/helpers/restore_helper.msh "$sourcedir" "$sourcefilebasename" "$targetfile"
But even if the script passes this first check, I think, there might be some other problem (I evidently messed the un-gzip part up, when embellishing the script after final testing). Maybe, you better don't try running it. I will check if I get time.

This is strange, since the back up and the restore scripts for defaults.persistent.lua were the very last one that I have tested. And I am rather sure that I did not modify them afterwards (as was the case with some of the other scripts). But who knows? Since you were not offered a list to choose from, you could not select a backed up file, and therefore, nothing was restored. I do not see why the list was not displayed.
I will try to get rid of the mistakes. But it may take some time, since I am rather under pressure right now.
