    Hey can any of you help. Im trying despritly to get my server to back up. But every morning when i wake up i get this message. Backup is not done today as per whm backup settings at /scripts/cpbackup line 164.

    In last attempt i am going to turn on back up everyday. I want to back up to the backup partition. I have been working fine since i moved to build C94

    Am i doing something wrong.
    Here is a picture of my backup window

    Also is there a way to force a backup now in ssh?

    Thanks,
    Nathaniel

    You can run this to force a backup.
    Your config looks fine. The only problem I can see is that
    your /backup directory or partition may not exist?

    /scripts/cpbackup --force

    im waiting for the backup to complete. Roughly how low does it take to backup about 500megs worth of accounts?

    Thanks,

    Perhaps a bug in the build. Do you get the same error if you force the run?

    Would you mind posting a (sanitized) copy of your cpbackup.conf? It looks like cpbackup is having issue with the backup days in that file.

    Its working now. When i forced it. It just hung the server. I had to reboot the server and i noticed it was tried to backup the progres databases. It could not login. I reinstalled the progres databases and it no works fine

    Thanks,
    Nathaniel
