Backup erroring

Hello,

I just found that my backup that has been working for years, has started failing. I get the following message when running the backup manually via the GUI.

Saving Backup 2…
Error: could not save backup. Aborting!
Initializing Backup 2
Backup Lock acquired!
Running pre-backup hooks…
Adding items…
Complete (Connection closed)

I did notice that the backup does start saving some files in /var/spool/asterisk/tmp. But does not copy them to the /var/spool/asterisk/backup folder.

There is enough space on the drive. The backups are only about 1.5 GB, and the freespace available is about 30 GB.

Does anyone know where to look next?

Anyone else having this issue? Or perhaps someone has a suggestion as to where to look next?

What version of freepbx you are using ?

just try command ‘fwconsole chown’ before backup run

FreePBX 13. I tried that command as well. I started taking away backup items one by one to see if it was erroring on specific things. It looks like the CDR database is the culprit. If I backup the CDRs, that’s when I get that error. Any ideas?

@jphilip Any other ideas to look at?

HI ,
please check the log file which is there in ASTLOGDIR / backup.log.
you may get some reason why is failing . Also where whether you cdr database is corrupted or not . if it is please repair it and try again

The only thing that is there is:
