Only for containers you no longer use or will want to use in the future. Thos templates are used by the Apps->Previoys Apps feature to reinstall. Ontsiners using their previous settings.

SteveNeedsPizza Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Running into a weird one. My backups keep failing with the below error. [AppdataBackup] Error! Description Please check the backup log! tar creation failed! Tar said: tar: /mnt/user/appdata/plex-media-server/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Cache: file changed as we read it BUT that exact folder is in the excluded folders/files list for the Plex docker. Shouldn't it just be skipped entirely? https://imgur.com/a/pfIKf6K Any help would be appreciated! Quote Link to comment
Kilrah Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 (edited) You excluded /mnt/user/... but the internal volume being backed up is /mnt/cache/... Edited June 5 by Kilrah Quote Link to comment
Glassed Silver Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 (edited) On 4/17/2024 at 11:12 PM, Spiritreader said: I think I am too dumb to figure out how to change the order of containers? If I drag a container in the "start order" section to the right, and then hit save and reload the page, it's at the old position again. Is there any additional step or save button that I am missing? container order in the config.json is empty "containerOrder": [] I thought that I might be able to set it manually but I don't know if it's a list of strings or some internal ids The configuration file is also missing some of my containers, and I cannot change their individual configuration or save that. The config ends at tika: "Tika": { "skip": "no", "group": "", "backupExtVolumes": "no", "updateContainer": "", "exclude": "", "skipBackup": "no", "verifyBackup": "", "ignoreBackupErrors": "" } }, "containerOrder": [] But there are more containers Here's a gif of trying to change order @KluthR can you please consider looking into this? You probably missed the post, but the issue still persists, at least it does for me. This COULD be related to both Spiritreader and me having a lot of containers. Maybe folks with fewer containers than some unknown amount aren't affected? Just guessing since that's something they and I have in common if that helps. Thank you so much for such a configurable plugin though! The only thing I'm missing otherwise is a way to save incremental using rsync I guess. Edited June 7 by Glassed Silver Quote Link to comment
beasthouse Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Hey legends, have a few errors popping up in my logs.

Kilrah Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Are youi setting up these first 2 containers not to be stopped? Something's still changing their files. Quote Link to comment

They are all set to 'Stop, backup, start for each container'. Unless there is another setting I am missing? Quote Link to comment
Vulkandr Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Sorry if this has been answered but couldnt find it, What is the danger in "skip stopping of container"? since it's just copying the data what danger does it pose? or is it simply not recommended because it may not be able to touch some files that are changing when docker is up? Quote Link to comment
Kilrah Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 If the container modifies files while it's being backed up then you won't have a consistent backup. Maybe it changes 2 files, one was backed up before the change, one after, then if you restore it can be broken. 1 Quote Link to comment
tmor2 Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 (edited) Hi, The backup fails. Debug log: 2f65d2e7-dd41-46a0-a376-3145a919b391 Mariadb tar creation fails and flash backup fails. How is this issue solved? (all docker containers are stopped at the same time before backup. No other process on UNRAID is touching or modifying any data) ab.debug.log Edited June 15 by tmor2 Quote Link to comment
KluthR Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 Seems like something is wrong with the mentioned .err file. If everything was stopped maybe some corruption happened? Deleting it should be safe is the destination path for the flash backup existing? Quote Link to comment
gacpac Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I just restored the vm meta but nothing shows up. I'm basically restoring from scratch, do i have to reboot or something? Quote Link to comment
Bulletoverload Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 On 7/13/2023 at 2:45 PM, KluthR said: Yep, if its set. What would another naming change? Failed backups are suffixed with „-failed“. I second the ability to rename backups. The old naming scheme was much better. I like the ability at quick glance to see that backups have run and are up to date. The current scheme is not user friendly for date and time at quick glance. I would enjoy the ability to set a custom scheme if possible. Quote Link to comment
mtdunphy Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Got the following error this morning when I woke up. It was backing up to my remote NAS and now nothing. I tried different shares on my remote NAS. Attached a screenshot and debug log code below. 297940e3-33da-4cc2-9a89-234d4bd087b0 Quote Link to comment
francesc0 Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 The tool is including folders that I have marked for exclusion, namely Plex's Cahce, Media and Metadata folders. Here's a screenshot of my config. Curious if anyone can see an error with my input or if there's a known issue. Haven't seen anything mentioned about this so I must've screwed up the config somewhere. Things I've tried: changing exclusion path and container path to /mnt/user, and any variation in between excluding folder names without the full path (e.g. /Cache, /Media, /Metadata Quote Link to comment
francesc0 Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Edit to the above comment: changing both paths from /mnt/user to /mnt/poola seems to have fixed the issue. Still took ~45 minutes just for Plex though, so I'll have to keep the container running during the backup unfortunately. Quote Link to comment
LordBooker Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Hi, got an error when im trying to backup. Nothing changed, since last backup. Thanks for help! Quote Link to comment
stephenwithph Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Could someone help me with this error message? "Tar creation failed! Tar said: tar /mnt/user/system/docker/docker.img: file changed as we read it" Debug log ID: 4b68d0e2-9581-42ab-a971-33f4896ba364 Quote Link to comment
Kilrah Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 docker.img should not be backed up in the first place. What did you do to get something from the system share be processed by this plugin? 1 1 Quote Link to comment

What did you do to get something from the system share be processed by this plugin? oh my... that makes sense then. probably this setting right here. Do you think this is unnecessary? Or should I add the docker.img to the exclusion list? Quote Link to comment
KluthR Posted June 24 Author Share Posted June 24 Add only those paths here which are used inside the docker containers. Usually /mmt/user/appdata and/or /mnt/cache/appdata. 1 Quote Link to comment
jcouch93 Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 (edited) Ran a backup automatically, I see folders in the backup location but the backup name ends in "failed", and the Restore option doesn't see the failed backup. There is no log (all it says in the GUI is "Log not existing or empty") so I'm at a loss of where to start t-shooting why it failed. Is there somewhere else I can see logs or do I just need to run a manual and watch the log output? Thanks! Edited June 24 by jcouch93 Spelling Quote Link to comment

Ran a manual backup that was successful, I THINK that the issue was caused by the CA Update plugin that I had accidentally set to run at the same time as the backup. Fixed that and ran the manual backup and it was successful with some warnings. Still not sure why the original didn't output any logs but that may just stay a mystery. Quote Link to comment
