error when using custom backup destination

[brainyron]

Hello,

I am attempting to develop a custom backup destination script and when I run a backup, I see the below output in cpbackup_transporter.log:

These errors are repeated for every call it makes. Lack of log output from my custom script indcates that the backup system has not even called the script. Please advise how I can correct this issue.

Hello

Could you provide more information about the custom backup script that you have developed?

Thank you.

Hello

Could you provide more information about the custom backup script that you have developed?

Thank you.

The script is a BASH wrapper around a python script which implements Azure storage. The python script is here: https://github.com/brainyron/azcmd I haven't put the bash wrapper on github yet. For logging, I've inserted the command near the top of the script "logger $AZCMD [email protected]" This logging shows up in my syslog exactly as expected when I perform validation in the backup settings in WHM, but there's no logging output when the backup transport queue attempts to run it.

I've moved this thread to the "cPanel Developers" forum. You will likely get more relevant feedback on this thread.

Thank you.

Hi Brainyron,

Sorry it's taken so long to get a response for you. I've been trying to reproduce this (we've had 2 reports now) but haven't been able to so far. Could you open a support ticket at https://tickets.cpanel.net/ so we can get more information about your system and why this is happening? Make sure you refer to this forum thread.

Thanks!
