To me it looks like there is a file ondisk with the name "995e82d4fbd1d30f5dcbbe10f3ff1838'"
The file_path is only relevant is you store on disk.
Check the root of your mantis installation, possibly you will find your attachments there :mrgreen:

Joke's on me, you made me look! hahaha

But no, I asume that column is loaded with a real path when I set the config to Disk, but with database option then I'm still unsure on where the files get dumped

Then the files are in the DB, in a field of type BLOB as indicated earlier in the field "content".

It is indeed, but I don't know much about it. I asume that I cannot see the actual file then?

No you cannot simply view it. Why would you need that?

Are you still in the migrating process? If so, there is no need to export and import. Please follow instructions from the manual.
