When running a Virtualmin scheduled backup to S3 a "full" backup doesn't seem to work.
Boxes checked: Full (all files)
and: One file per server
The tar.gz files uploaded to S3 when downloaded and unpacked consist of dozens of what look like incremental backup folders.
If I change the backup destination to: "Local file or directory" then it works correctly and the unpacked tar.gz file has the complete (Full) account archived.
Using Virtualmin Version 4.01.gpl and Webmin version 1.801

Howdy -- ah, it looks like you're using a fairly old version of Virtualmin there... that was released about 3 years ago.
There's been quite a few bugfixes since then.
Could you try updating to the most recent Virtualmin version, and then attempt the backup again?

I've got the same problem running Virtualmin 5.03 Pro... apparently it's a Webmin issue and it's been fixed in Webmin 1.801 https://sourceforge.net/p/webadmin/discussion/600157/thread/55556f4b/?li...
Does anyone know when the automatic package update (through Virtualmin) will be released?

Yeah if you aren't using the latest Webmin or Virtualmin I'd definitely recommend updating. The latest version of both of those is available in the repository now.

When will this update be available via the Virtualmin Package Updates module?

The Package Updates module installs packages from the Virtualmin repository.
So if it's in the repository, it should be available for install via that module.

Hmmm... it's not coming up for me: webmin A web-based administration interface for Unix systems. No update exists from version 1.800-1 That's on Virtualmin Pro 5.03 with everything updated.

What output do you receive if you run the command "yum update webmin" on the command line?

It looks like there is a repository enabled that's no longer functioning.
That is preventing your other repositories from working.
What you'd need to do is look in /etc/yum.repos.d for a repository that's looking in "http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/SCL", and then disable that repository.

Sweet! Worked a charm :) Also freed up about a dozen updates that must have not been loaded due to the same problem. Thanks for your help!
