remote backups
« on: April 29, 2021, 04:54:36 AM »
I have the remote backups working in that it creates a 2gb backup.tar.gz file on my remote ftp server.

Unfortunately, when i go to open the backup to select something to restore i get "archive is corrupt".

Am I forced to restore with CWP? or is there something catastrophically wrong with the backups where it's generating corrupt compressed backups?

interesting, if i automatically backup to my ftp server (ftpserver:/daily-backup.tar.gz) , the backup file is corrupt and cannot be extracted.  If I manually backup and download the backup file from my server (/home/account/backupcwp/backupfile.tar.gz) i can open it fine.

Could there be an issue with the automated backup to ftp?
