OPNsense 23.1.5_4-amd64

I have setup backup to Google drive. It is working and see backups in the folder designated for backup. I see files like config-1680152401.xml. But, when I look at the file details, all these backup XML files are 0 bytes. I downloaded the file and it still downloaded as 0 byte file. I do not see any error. The Test Google Drive works fine. Are these backup files supposed to be 0 bytes? If not, then how to fix?

Thanks...

Turns out that I had to supply a password to encrypt backups in the Google Drive setup section. I had set it up without supplying a password. Opnsense did not issue any warning/error so I assumed that password is optional. It is not optional.

Thank you posting the solution! I ran into the same issue and supplying a password fixed it.
