Hi,
I configured some domains to backup automatically but some works and other don't. I have the followin message, sent by mail, about the backup :

****************************************************************************
* *
* ATTENTION: DUMP PROCEDURE HAS BEEN ABORTED, BECAUSE AN ERROR OCCURED! *
* *
* Using the dump file for restoration is dangerous !!! *
* *
****************************************************************************

How can I have more informations about this error ? any log somewhere ?

Thanks,
Nicolas.
 
See if you have a log file at:

/var/lib/psa/dumps/yourdomain.com/backup_restore.err_log

or do a search for the file.
 
Hi,

I have the same problem with some domain names.

I post the content of the backup logs:

backup_restore.log

START LOGGING: Tue Nov 08 04:30:22

Postgres is not configured: all postgres databases will not be dumped.

Making backup to STDOUT ...

Single domain backup is successfully completed


backup_restore.err_log

[EMPTY]

It seems the error log has not logged any error.

What can I do?

Many thanks! :)
 
I solved the problem, but I don't know what really caused it.
I scheduled the backup cron one hour later in order that it begin after other backup crons were finished and now it works fine...
