To quickly answer your last questions.

Yes your old backups keep running. No need to remove them before the upgrade.

In the backup setup page there is a link to the old backup page, which is fully working.

Hi Johannes,

the upgrade went without any problem.

Regarding the new backup I have several questions:

- Once you add a new target, you cannot remove it with the web interface
- Where are the config files stored for this backup
- Miss the option to make my own selection to backup, or only backup ...

Hi Johannes,

yes I noticed that it will take several seconds. However, backups are made and nothings shows up in the timeline. Even tried creating a new backup, but that doesn't work either.

Hope you've got this fixed soon.

Hi Johannes,

would you be so kind as to look into the issue I mentioned above?

Thanks,

Albert

Hi Carl,

did you had time to look into the back list problem I mentioned earlier in this thread?
Seems like it was introduced with the latest update.

Hi Johannes,

has anything been updated with the backup. I noticed that after the update to 2.5.1 and 2.5.1.1 the backups don't show up anymore in the timeline on the webinterface. The backups are working.

Hi,

the backups are scheduled via the file

/etc/cron.d/bubba-backup

which has the same layout as the standard crontab file.

Albert

This is a problem I already communicated to Excito.

The problem is that the backup script, run by cron at a certain time, always returns a non-zero value. The cron daemon sees a return value of non-zero as a failed job. This cron daemon also mails the output of the job to the user, and because it ...

I've got one, for what it's worth.

Two eSata ports instead of one. One should be able to use a port multiplier, as it is now.

- I would like to have to have the option of an "always full" backup. Currently, the backup is full the first time, and incremental until it expires, after which a new full will be created. Adding a tick box "Always full" to the backup configuration.

Reason: I make a backup of my mail daily, weekly ...

Yesterday evening I noticed that 2.5.0.2 is out. I upgraded it through the webinterface. That went fine, although I had the message "No internet..." as mentioned before after it finished. I rebooted, just to be sure I'm running all the fixes:

- Backup works fine now

- The message about no internet ...

Sorry, no that's not the problem, as said command line does work fine.

I'll investigate tonight, see what I can find out.

Albert

Can't give you the output right now (at work, sorry). But the LAN is IP address 192.168.1.4/24 and the gateway is my router 192.168.1.254. I don't use the WAN.

This hasn't changed in the last 1.5 years. As said, on the commandline it all looks fine. It picks up/sends mail without any problems, as ...

Hi Johannes,

yes, tried it the past few days. Same error, as said doing it on the commandline works fine.
Any logs I can check specifically (when I get home)?

Albert

Any news on the backup update?

Apart from that I found another weird error which wasn't there beforer.

If I run update on the commandline (apt-get update; apt-get upgrade) it all works fine, and there are (unfortunately) no updates yet. If I do the same through the webinterface (the update that is ...
