CLI Backup

[guest15389]

I was using this:

https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=4690.msg18194#msg18194

I'm not sure if something changed with my Linux box as I made a move from Debian to Fedora, but I just noticed I'm getting an error when using your script:

Code: [Select]

/home/felix/scripts/router/opn_backup.rb:42:in `<main>': undefined method `scan' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
Does it need an update or am I just missing something that needs to be installed?

Code: [Select]

ruby -v
ruby 2.4.3p205 (2017-12-14 revision 61247) [x86_64-linux]

This is not an issue with your box - it seems like the XSRF protection has changed and the script was not aware of it - I updated the script so it should work again but it will need an XML parser (nokogiri) to work.

You can install this dependency using

Code: [Select]

gem install nokogiri. It might be in your package manager as well because it is a very common package.

I was able to get that installed but still generates the same error.

Code: [Select]

[felix@plex router]$ gem install nokogiri

did you download the new version of the script?

[guest15389]

I did, but didn't update my main script to use the new one. Fixed and working now.

Thanks!
