Question Cleaning the backup manager

Noturns

Regular Pleskian
Plesk 12.5
CentOS 6.5
---------------

Today i have cleared my backup manager because there where some backup errors of subscriptions that where no longer listed. For some reason i cannot remove a task for the primairy default domain. Why is that?

I don't mind the server-wide backup. But i noticed something strange that the Server-wide Backup still shows backup tasks after everything was removed from the server.

See picture below:

Because i had removed all my backups so there should not be any backups listed.
When you click on a backup it shows an error....

I already looked in the terminal and could not find a file called backup_skel_1503270306.tgz

Does anyone know what these are?
How can i remove these backup tasks?

Reproduce steps:

> Scheduled Backups List
> Click Plesk Administrator
> Click Backup Manager
 
Hi,

You can check the list of backups in sqlite3 database file "/usr/local/psa/PMM/tasks/tasks.db"

~# ls -la /usr/local/psa/PMM/tasks/tasks.db
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20480 Aug 15 23:41 /usr/local/psa/PMM/tasks/tasks.db
~#
~#
~# sqlite3 /usr/local/psa/PMM/tasks/tasks.db
SQLite version 3.6.20
Enter ".help" for instructions
Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";"
sqlite> .tables
tasks
sqlite> select * from tasks;
5|Backup|a3f1fdde-0a6c-4bf5-85a5-00c0f4043cc4 ........................
..........................................................................................

I believe you will see these backup tasks there. You can create a backup of "/usr/local/psa/PMM/tasks/tasks.db" file

~# cp /usr/local/psa/PMM/tasks/tasks.db /usr/local/psa/PMM/tasks/tasks.db.orig

And then, try to clear `tables` table

sqlite> delete from tasks;
