Title: Backups To Google broken ?
Post by: iBROX on February 25, 2021, 05:42:40 AM
Hi,

I've just noticed that my daily overnight backups of the config file to Google have stopped working for some reason, settings are fine because if I go in and do a manual backup it uploads to Google just fine.

Any ideas on where to start looking , last successful backup was a manual one I did on 22/2/21 @ 10:03am none have gone up since.

I know this is not helpful in one sense, but my auto backups are still working fine (latest one today after updating to 21.1.2 yesterday). So it doesn't seem to be an across-the-board issue. Hope you can track down what is causing your difficulties. [emoji846]

No probs, I might give the router a reboot and see if that clears anything.

Panic over, reboot seems to have fixed it  :)

Hmmm or so I thought, it worked once after the reboot now it's failed again.

Logs show no backups until I manually did one this morning.

Any ideas on where to start?

I may reconfigure the job and see if that helps.

Just to mention it ... There will only be a "daily backup" if something has changed in the configuration (one that you made).  If you didn't make a change on a given day, you will not see a new backup.

Thanks Priller, I think thats what my issue is, I wasn't aware of that.  I've just done a small test with a change, so will see if it backs up overnight if it does, problem solved! :)
