/home/backup filling up every 10 mins with tmp dirs
/home/backup filling up every 10 mins with tmp dirs
Hi, we are having space issues on our server with /home/backup filling up with large dirs/files placed there every ten minutes. I'm thinking this must be linked to a cron job with some other issue but aren't sure what to disable (if anything). The files are in directories named as follows -
tmp.AR96CVUh84 tmp.e8nYCMGBsN tmp.eXBdmJuW5K tmp.liaYcGpvfr tmp.rVE6OpBT6o
tmp.D1yxkbBSeZ tmp.eoDCxrIJrR tmp.LBwoJ1fJTG tmp.Mcy8S25kti
- inside the directories are 'pam' 'vesta' and 'web' sub directories.
Any advice appreciated on how to rectify this.
Thank you.

Experiencing the same issue, just create a cron job to remove them.
cd /backup rm-r -f tmp*
cd /backup rm-r -f tmp*

Was/is there any fix for this? My backup seems to be in a constant loop. tar is constantly running and making backups over and over again. All backups are being stored in a tmp. folder. Deleting the files isn't really a fix. This doesn't fix tar from constantly running and the backups aren't available in VestaCP for restoration.
Thanks in advance!

You can try to clear the /usr/local/vesta/data/queue/backup.pipe file.

I have a similar issue. It's not every 10 mins, but every 2 weeks. So ev. old tmp. files are not cleaned. The suggestion to clear the backup.pipe doesn't work, since this file is already empty.
What can it be then?
