xaositek Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 I just installed the beta version - when clicking the "Save" button under "Some Extra Settings" -> "Done?", the "Scheduled Backup Frequency" reverts to "Disabled" (I selected Daily) and also the "Skip?" defaults to "Yes" for each Docker container. Downloading the logs results in a 19 byte file that says no log found. Able to help any way I can to troubleshoot. Finally decommissioning the v2.5 version to jump to a beta version that doesn't appear to migrate any data automatically is a bit rough - wish there was an export/import or something.

Just installed it fresh again, just giving it a source and the daily option (and set one container to Verify: no) -> Saved, Page reloaded: My cronjob settings are as set. The per docker setting "Verify?" is still no, as set. Could you share your /boot/config/plugins/appdata.backup.beta/config.json file? 15 minutes ago, xaositek said: doesn't appear to migrate any data automatically is a bit rough There are just a few things I can migrate so I currently chose to migrate nothing. The base settings are a good start, you just have to set a destination. Since fine tuning on the containers is needed, I did not added some migration (yet).

KluthR Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 17 minutes ago, KluthR said: Cannot reproduce False. I found an issue regarding the defaults for containers. Please update and either remove the mentioned config.json and start again or set their values back to "Uwe default". The settings should no longer switch back to the real default values. Sorry! But I still cant reproduce the schedule-resets-itself issue Quote Link to comment
xaositek Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Nuked config.json, updated to Beta 2 and reconfigured. Scheduling still looks bugged in the Web Interface but is saved properly to config.json config.json Quote Link to comment
xaositek Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 You can also see in the config.json I have "Skip" to "No" but yet the Web Interface says Yes Quote Link to comment
KluthR Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 (edited) Thanks for your input Thats smells like an issue during apply settings back to their fields. Thats done via JavaScript. I bet, if you press F12 (browsers dev console) you can see some red errors. Which broser are you using? Just tested with FF and Edge Edited March 28, 2023 by KluthR Quote Link to comment

xaositek Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Just tested in Chrome Version 111.0.5563.146 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Windows 11 and it appears that OS/browser did work Quote Link to comment
KluthR Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 So, you use safari then? Hmm, I cant test that here, maybe my iPhone can shed a light. Let me try. But I dont see any JS errors which could have prevented the process. Quote Link to comment

KluthR Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 Yep, I can reproduce this on my iPhone. I'll search a solution. 1 Quote Link to comment
mjorud Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Do Appdata Backup also backup all Docker volume mappings? My appdata\binhex-delugevpn is 73 MB but I had to stop the backup process when the backed up archive grew over 200 GB. This also happened to several other Dockers. Please find the debug attached. ab.debug.log Quote Link to comment
KluthR Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 Currently it does, yes. But I immediately see what that can cause. I‘ll change that behavior and let the user decide how to handle mappings outside the appdata path. Dont ask me why I did not see/paid attention to it. Quote Link to comment
Govnah Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 I ran this on 6.12RC2 and after ~hour and ~400GB of space and still running I aborted the backup. Will not abort after 30 minutes, "Waiting on Current Task to Finish." Had to reboot. Will follow-up w/ a diagnostic file. 1 Quote Link to comment

AnnabellaRenee87 Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 (edited) I was able to kill the process, here's the logs. Edit 1, Also, forgot the name but it ended in a .php for the process. Edit 2, looks like it didn't kill the process and it's just eating up space now, Gonna reboot and delete the backup. ab.debug.log Edit 3, So had to force shutdown with the power button, that was fun (she lied) lol, hope my info helps get things working, love the plugin! Edited March 28, 2023 by AnnabellaRenee87 Super sized backup of a super small Docker. Quote Link to comment
craven_moorehead Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 (edited) I manually excluded the non appdata volumes, and set it to verify backup = false but it's still failing with errors and this causes all the files to be deleted from the backup directory. Before the backup is complete, if I look in the backup directory I can see that all the files are there. logs attached. Edit: was able to kill the process using fuser -km /mnt/user ab.log ab.debug.log Edited March 29, 2023 by craven_moorehead found the way to kill the process Quote Link to comment
MyKroFt Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 When I set the schedule to weekly on a Monday it asked what day of the week I think it should not be asking that? Quote Link to comment
KluthR Posted March 29, 2023 Author Share Posted March 29, 2023 (edited) For all who are facing issues with too large backups (hey, better than nothing 😞 Stay tuned, Im working on that. 8 hours ago, MyKroFt said: When I set the schedule to weekly on a Monday it asked what day of the week I think it should not be asking that? You are right, but the setting would have no effect. I just did not disabled the input field yet. The logic is created the right way in the background.

KluthR Posted March 29, 2023 Author Share Posted March 29, 2023 Released an update, please give it another try. @xaositekSafari should work well now as well Quote Link to comment
mjorud Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 It works as expected and no longer backups volume mappings other than \appdata\. The old version of the backup plugin required the CA Auto Update Applications plugin to be installed (if I remember correctly). Do this new version also require that plugin? Quote Link to comment

Found an interesting issue though - I clicked Abort but it appears the gzip stuck in the middle of running so I killed the gzip command at the CLI level. It's now stuck thinking the backup is in running mode; but it isn't as you can see on the screen. Edit: it did finally recognize the backup had finished; I just jumped the gun.
