Backups Fail Since upgrade to 7

Submitted by xtremeservices on Wed, 05/01/2013 - 01:21

Here is what I am seeing in the email for the VM nightly backup :

System               Result                                        Size      
-------------------- --------------------------------------------- ----------
ns1.xtsuniverse.net  Failed to upload test file to destination sys -         
ns2.xtsuniverse.net  Failed to upload test file to destination sys -         
vps236.xtsuniverse.n Failed to upload test file to destination sys -         

Finding systems to backup ..
.. found 3 systems

Working out backup destinations ..
.. found 3 usable destinations

This just started happening after upgrading to Cloudmin 7.

Here are the simple ssh backup settings.

I have used Filezilla with the same user, pass and folder destination to manually backup to without issue.

Could there be an issue with /%Y-%m-%d being in the directory path?

Hmm, looks like this might have already been fixed : https://www.virtualmin.com/node/26798

Jamie, can I get a pre-release patch for this? I perform nightly backups that create date stamped directories : /%Y-%m-%d and I can't wait till the next release.

Thx,

The quick work-around is to pre-create your destination directories.

We will be releasing a 7.01 version soon that will include a fix for this. Let me know if you'd prefer a patch though.
