Schedule Backup not backing up

[shaoming]

Hi to all,

schedule backup doesn't seem to be producing any backups.

Have checked the crontab, the entry is present

# crontab -l
10,25,40,55 * * * * /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/backupmng >/dev/null 2>&1

And /var/log/cron also shows the binary been called.

Has also tried running the command directly off the shell.

# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/backupmng >/dev/null 2>&1

The program returns inmmediately.

Hoping for someone to point me to the right place/log to check.

thanks

Hi !
I have the same problem.
As your post is quite old, did you get an answer, or found a trick to correct this "misbehaviour" ?
Thanks for your help.

Hi guys.

crontabbed task backupmng just tracks if there are any backups to be done nearest time, if so, it calls /usr/local/psa/bin/pleskbackup with the given parameters.

so the engine of the procedure is /usr/local/psa/bin/pleskbackup, check if it gets launched or not.

when it's time type

# ps auxww |grep pleskbackup


possible workaround is just crontabbing pleskbackup instead of backupmng.

Is there a new solution for this problem? I can't find the cron-log in my system.

Plesk Control Panel-Version
psa v8.6.0_build86090814.11 os_SuSE 10.2
OS
Linux 2.6.18.8-0.7-default

Cheers,
Dirk
