  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Resolved Backup Manager doesn't work after updating to 17.8.11 MU3

Joost de Bruijn

New Pleskian
Yesterday my Plesk 17.8.11 installation was updated to MU3. This night I received the following error by mail:

The following error occurred during the scheduled backup process:

Runtime error: Dump validation utility returned empty result at /opt/psa/admin/bin/plesk_agent_manager line 1297.
; Dump validation utility returned empty result

In the UI I cannot open the Backup Manager: I receive an empty error message: also the panel logging does not contain any additional information:

[2018-04-01 11:25:49.139] ERR [panel]
[2018-04-01 11:25:58.034] ERR [panel]
[2018-04-01 11:26:22.187] ERR [panel]
[2018-04-01 13:07:38.817] ERR [panel]
[2018-04-01 13:10:30.791] ERR [panel]

I ensured the backup FTP-server is up and running and the credentials haven't changed. Also, the FTP-server software is not updated recently. The FTP-logging does not identicate something worth to mention. Is this an issue with MU3? How can I resolve it?
 
to nearror down the issue,
which OS are you running and is it a scheduled Backup of a Domain or a Server Backup.
is there something helpfull error message in the PMM log files, usually under /var/log/plesk/PMM/

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04.4. Thanks for the other logfile location, I was not aware of that one. Maybe this can be interesting:

This error did not occured before the upgrade to MU3.
 
Hello. Unfortunately, we cannot reproduce the issue. Could you please do the following steps:
1. Set FORCE_DEBUG_LOG to 1 in /usr/local/psa/admin/share/pmmcli/pmmcli-rc
2. Run the backup
3. Find the latest log file /var/log/plesk/PMM/backup..../backup.log. And post their parts from the line with 'Check dump' till the end of the log file
