How to make urbackup to stop trying to send this message

Ok i got it you have to clear mail_queue Table in backup_server.db

Hi
How exactly did you do it?

4

there is a backup_server.db file in urbackup instalation directory. You have to use sqlite client utility and clear mail_queue Table.

[root@storage ~]# sqlite3 backup_server.db
SQLite version 3.7.17 2013-05-20 00:56:22
Enter ".help" for instructions
Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";"
sqlite> DELETE  FROM mail_queue;

You have to stop urbackup daemon for safety, before performing this operation.

Googling is so difficult.:grin::wink:
