Plesk backup hangs

[CosminM]

Hello,

I noticed that for a while my plesk backup task keeps hanging. After I kill the process, the summary backup log sais:
Phase 2/2: packing data
/bin/tar: ./error_log: file changed as we read it
/bin/tar: ./access_log: file changed as we read it
/bin/tar: ./error_log: file changed as we read it
07:06:14 ERROR Failed to create MIME message

I haven't managed to find any detailed information about that error, I hope someone from here can give me a hand.
Thank you!

Hello,

Please, check permissions on backup folder and it's sub folders. Right permissions are:

grep DUMP_D /etc/psa/psa.conf | awk '{print "ls -ld "$2}' | sh
drwxr-x--- 7 psaadm psaadm /var/lib/psa/dumps

Also make sure that is is enough free disk space on dump partition.

Please, check the following article for more information:

Hello,
Thank you for your reply. The permissions are ok, it works just like this on another server, Plesk 8.6 too.
The root backup cron is:
30 0 * * thu /usr/local/psa/bin/pleskbackup -v all --skip-logs /backup/becks_backup_`/bin/date "+\%Y\%m\%d\%H\%M"`
/backup is a NFS mounted partition and its permissions are:
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 14 Oct 1 00:07 backup

Any ideas?

Edit: the actual backup file is writen, but i doubt it is clean and uncorrupted since the process backup hangs for hours..
