[BlueOnyx:26441] Re: easy-backup ftp problem and question
Hi Michael Don't worry about the subdirs in the remote directory path, I already did it in the way you proposed. Regarding the notification sending, I noticed that after the easy-backup finishes the log file is still in /home/.easy-backup/ (on all 4 5210R where Easy-Backup is currently installed). Running a full backup from the CLI gives this at the end: Error parsing time at /home/solarspeed/easy-backup/tmp/par-726f6f74/cache-f1214cafafa8c3fccb2fe571fe0f283e2a94c809/inc/lib/Time/Piece.pm line 481, line 1703. Can it be that this causes the mail issue and/or not deletion of the log file? I think you still have alter-admin access to one of the servers, so feel free to check if you have time or I happily open a new ticket.

So far Easy-Backup works very well (haven't tried a restore yet) but the only issue I see is that the email notification are not working on any server. there is not even an attempt to email visible in /var/log/maillog Am I missing something? thanks Janwillem Ah and another feature request: would it be possible to add subdirs to the remote directory (now it only allows myremotedir and I would really love to have myremotedir/server01 etc On Sun, Sep 3, 2023 at 8:36 AM Michael Stauber via Blueonyx < blueonyx@mail.blueonyx.it> wrote: > Hi Michael, > > > I did "/usr/sausalito/sbin/easy-backup --check" and it appears that it > > is not compatible with a # in my ftp password.

[BlueOnyx:26415] 5210R hostname change hangs on 17%
Hi When changing the hostname/domain and/or DNS servers in the System Settings -> TCP/IP menu item the changes don't happen, the task progress bar hangs at 17% forever. I could set the hostname via the CLI and the new hostname is reflected in the GUI (under the BlueOnyx Logo) but in the System Setttings it's still the old one. Seems CCED is not updating. Any idea how to fix this? thanks Janwillem ___ Blueonyx mailing list Blueonyx@mail.blueonyx.it http://mail.blueonyx.it/mailman/listinfo/blueonyx
