one of my schedule backups fails, but works ok when run manually...
I get the following msg via email: ' Creating backup for virtual server SUB-SERVER.com .. Copying virtual server configuration .. Failed to open /home/A-USER/domains/SUB-SERVER.com/.backup/SUB-SERVER.com_virtualmin_scripts for writing : No such file or directory at ../web-lib-funcs.pl line 1427.

Does that directory
/home/A-USER/domains/SUB-SERVER.com/.backupactually exist?How about
/home/A-USER/domains/SUB-SERVER.com?Submitted by dexta on Fri, 12/02/2016 - 04:40 Comment #2
/home/A-USER/domains/SUB-SERVER.com/.backup - does NOT exist
the SUB-SERVER.com path is valid and contains an etc and tmp directory and a dot file called .virtualmin-src

Is this sub-server an alias domain, or a full website?
Also, is the owner of the top-level domain perhaps low on disk quota?

today's error msg for the same schedule backup is slightly different
Failed to open /home/B-USER/.backup/DOMAIN.com_dns_dnssec_keyinfo for writing : No such file or directory at ../web-lib-funcs.pl line 1427.

It looks like the real issue is that the
.backupdirectory can't be created, or is being deleted.Do you perhaps have multiple backups for the same domain running at the same time?

yes, one is hourly, another is daily.
** so the midnight scheduled bkup fails.

Couldn't they overlap then, at midnight?

that's it, thanks

Maybe change the hourly one to 30 minutes past the hour?

after changing the overlapping schedule times, the backups are now working well
many thanks
