Plesk Backup Error

Boindil

New Pleskian
Hi,
today I received like 20 mails for the last 20 backups (were sent today according to pmmcli_daemon.log).

Code:
[2015-04-17 22:42:02] Action param: session_id:/opt/psa/PMM/sessions/2015-04-17-221202.885
[2015-04-17 22:42:02] Action param: session_id:/opt/psa/PMM/sessions/2015-04-16-221202.335

.. and so on

In these mails I get the following message (with different IDs)
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

How to fix the error described in the mails? I see no indication of where the error occured (specific file/folder).

Thanks in advance
 
Hi, your post in a different thread helped identifying the files.

Go to /var/www/vhosts/ and run two commands:

# find . -print | sed 's;[^/]*/;|___;g;s;___|; |;g' > files1.txt
# grep --color='auto' -P -n "[\x80-\xFF]" files1.txt

With first command file files1.txt with all directories structure will be created.
Second command will highlight by red all non-usual symbols in files1.txt

There were a few files with german characters but also one with russian chars (language file).

I changed the filenames and hope its working now. Maybe it would be a good thing to add this to KB124608.

Still i think its interesting, that the following occured:
1. Me getting about 20 mails for different backups at once, now every day - other mails were sending fine the whole time.
2. That error taking place out of a sudden. It was working fine about 12 months now.

Greetings

Well the solution worked.

But I noticed, that yesterday the backup threw an error:
Unable to rotate dump: The dump rotation is failed with code '126' at /opt/psa/admin/bin/plesk_agent_manager line 1038

Greetings
 
The last error;
Unable to rotate dump: The dump rotation is failed with code '127' at /opt/psa/admin/bin/plesk_agent_manager line 1038 any ideas what that might be? How to fix that.
