Remote FTP Backup - Not Working

xucraig · Post by **xucraig** » Tue Jan 20, 2015 3:54 pm

Hello everyone,

I just recently installed VestaCP (version 0.9.8, Release 12) on my Ubuntu 14.04 server at Digital Ocean. Everything is working well, except for Remote FTP Backup.

I configured FTP backup as documented here: http://vestacp.com/docs/#how-to-configure-ftp-backup

I confirmed that I can reach my FTP server from my server on Digital Ocean using the same credentials I entered when running the script, and I also confirmed that my /usr/local/vesta/conf/ftp.backup.conf has the same credentials in it.

I can see that when the backups ran this morning, it successfully created the backup folder on my FTP server, but there are no backups inside that folder.

Here are my config files:

ftp.backup.conf

Code: Select all

HOST='ftp.host.com'
USERNAME='ftpuser'
PASSWORD='p4ssw0rd'
BPATH='/backup'
PORT='21'
TIME='17:54:26'
DATE='2015-01-19'

vesta.conf

Code: Select all

WEB_SYSTEM='apache2'
WEB_RGROUPS='www-data'
WEB_PORT='8080'
WEB_SSL='mod_ssl'
WEB_SSL_PORT='8443'
PROXY_SYSTEM='nginx'
PROXY_PORT='80'
PROXY_SSL_PORT='443'
FTP_SYSTEM='vsftpd'
MAIL_SYSTEM='exim4'
IMAP_SYSTEM='dovecot'
ANTIVIRUS_SYSTEM=''
ANTISPAM_SYSTEM=''
DB_SYSTEM='mysql'
DNS_SYSTEM='bind9'
STATS_SYSTEM='webalizer,awstats'
BACKUP_SYSTEM='local,ftp'
CRON_SYSTEM='cron'
DISK_QUOTA='no'
REPOSITORY='cmmnt'
VERSION='0.9.8'
LANGUAGE='en'
FIREWALL_SYSTEM='iptables'

Here's a screenshot of the server VestaCP is on successfully connecting to the FTP server: http://i.imgur.com/JSUpH8r.png

I'm sure I'm overlooking something silly. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We already know about this problem in Ubuntu 14
Fix will be in the next release

Thanks imperio. I must have missed that when I was searching.

Hi,
Fist of all, thanks for this excellent piece of software, it works amazing and I Iike the simplicity of VestaCP interface.
Do you guys have an estimate of when the fix for Remote FTP Backup will be available. I saw another thread about next release in May but seems like the updates are still being tested so is there any release date?
Thanks,
Mansoor
