Re: Release notes for Excito Bubba 2&3 software version 2.5.

Hi Carl, I found the problem for the backup issue. When changing the jobdata file to use double quotes arounds strings, and fixing the bug for interpretting this you used the quotemeta function in 2.5.0.1. Unfortunately, quotemeta escapes all non-word characters, including the hyphen. Too bad that t...

Re: Release notes for Excito Bubba 2&3 software version 2.5.

Hi Carl, I mailed this to support as well ([Excito Support #6292]) so you can mail me directly if needed, but for reference in this thread here are my findings. I made a copy of the file /usr/lib/web-admin/backup.pl and played around with it. I have added the following lines to the function find_dis...

Hi Carl,

a reboot didn't made any difference.

Re: Release notes for Excito Bubba 2&3 software version 2.5.

Hi Carl, I can't check it at the moment (still at work), but will check it tomorrow morning. I ran an update this morning and nothing came up, so it should be fine. I may have edited the backup script, not really made changes, but touched it. This may have interferred with the update (file creation ...

Re: Release notes for Excito Bubba 2&3 software version 2.5.

Hi Carl, I find it strange that it does not work after the upgrade, before it worked fine. And even newly created backup schemes don't work. What I will do first is a reboot, can't remember I did that after the upgrade, probably not. And see if it works again. Is there anything I can do to get more ...

Re: Release notes for Excito Bubba 2&3 software version 2.5.

Not wanting to sound too pushy, but is there going to be a fix for the backup to a disk?
As it doesn't work anymore since this update, see my previous replies.

And I don't see anything happening at the moment.

Regards,

Albert

Re: Release notes for Excito Bubba 2&3 software version 2.5.

One more bug report on the backup. This one has been there from the beginning, but I finally found out what's causing it. When a backup finishes I get an email telling that it finished. In the subject line it always ends with (failed) This has to do with the running of the cronjob. When it finishes ...

Re: Release notes for Excito Bubba 2&3 software version 2.5.

I am at work right now, so that's a bit difficult. But it was all pretty standard. I checked the disk uuid in that file, which was fine and did exist. And the backup (sub)directory was there as well (called backup), and the disk label was Backup. Anyway, a newly created one didn't work either. Altho...

Re: Release notes for Excito Bubba 2&3 software version 2.5.

Hi Carl, sorry to bring the bad news. But the backup doesn't work at all now. It has status Not Run. If I look into the fileinfo file in the admin homedirectory, I see the message "Backup disk not found, exiting" Unfortunately, this does not only happen with newly created backups, but also...

Re: Newly created backup job doesn't run (BUG REPORT)

I found the problem! It has to do with how the webinterface creates the backup job. In the directory /home/admin/.backup every backup job created gets an subdirectory with the jobname. In this job subdirectory a file called "jobdata" is created. The old script created all variables without...

Newly created backup job doesn't run

I have been using the backup facility for several months now to back up my email, and that works fine. I have created jobs MailDaily and MailWeekly for that. Now I have updated B3 to the latest 2.5 release and tried to add simply a MailMonthly backup as well. Simple backup to an external USB disk ev...

Re: Release notes for Excito Bubba 3 software version 2.5

Hi Johannes,

is the bug fixed in the backup, where older .info files aren't cleaned up?

I know it is not a deal breaker, but it is annoying, because you'll see backup entries which aren't there anymore and can't be restored.

Regards,

Albert
