File backup not running

Had some issues so completely removed and reinstalled urBackup.
Image backups work fine.
File backups do not run.
V1.0 Server and client software
Do not do file backups box is NOT checked
Interval for incremental file backups – 24 hours
Interval for full file backups – 30 days
Max # of incr file backups – 30
Min # of Incr file backups – 10
Min # of full file backups – 3

I select a PC, Full File Backup, and click Start for Selected. Says queued.
Switch to Activities tab and nothing is running.
Just exits immediately.

Anyone have any ideas what is wrong?

Thanks

Bruce

Hi,

can you put UrBackup server into debug log mode as of http://www.urbackup.org/Administration_Manual.php#x1-420008
and look if it tells you why it can’t run the file backup (it should log that for incemental file backups).
You can also send the log file or parts of it to martin@urbackup.org

Martin,

Here are the events in the log for the Full File Backup I attempted:

Thanks, but the server log would be more interesting, as the server has some conditions, where it cannot start a backup. And if possible try to do a incremental file backup, because it has more log messages.

If you are talking about /var/log/urbackup.log, there is nothing in it pertaining to the backup.
Last message in it was for the reboot I did earlier this morning, about 25 min. prior to the attempt at 7:28am.

Looks like the log is continually written to with debug on.
I tried an incremental file around 3:40pm or so.
Here is “Incremental file backup” log from PC client from 3:00pm on:

Yes it’s /var/log/urbackup.log if there is nothing in it, it probably is not running in debug log mode (change in /etc/default/urbackup_srv ).

My bad, forgot to change to debug.

Looks like directories missing.
Here is Server log after changing to debug:

And the client “02ebz06” does have file backup paths? (To add/remove via Add/Remove paths in the tray icon).

Never thought of that since image backups were working.
I added path, file backup starts now, but has another problem and exits right away.
PC_Backups is the folder shared out from the Linux Server.

Client log from icon in tray:

By that you probably mean, that the PC_Backups folder is a samba share on a linux server, which you want to backup?

I’ve played around a little and I think the problem is permissions. UrBackup runs as SYSTEM user on Windows and that user probably doesn’t have the proper credentials to access the network share. You could change the user the UrBackupBackend service runs as in the Service management console (services.msc) to a user that is allowed to access the network share.

Either that or I seem to have introduced a bug, which does cause it to not be able to backup from UNC paths, i.e. network shares \server\bla etc.
I’ve published a version without this bug here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/urbackup/files/Client/1.0.1RC/

The PC_Backup folder is a Linux Share. I am not backing it up, I am putting the backup there.
The file backup seems to run now but exits right away with this error:

Activating shadow copy on “02ebz06” for path “02ebz06” failed

02ebz06 is my Windows-XP PC
