Warm spare "Could not login with username: root"

[cyeit]

Hello,

This used to work, but there seems to be an issue saving the backup file to the warm spare server. Where are the credentials used by the primary to log in to the warm spare?

See the log below.

Warmspare enabled for this backup
We Have triggered an API to restore the backup on Spare Server
Response from Warmspare backup Server API

It seems to be able to connect with the API just not the SSH to save the file

This is set in the FileStore

I have run this command as shown in the instructions too
sudo -u asterisk ssh-copy-id -i /home/asterisk/.ssh/id_rsa.pub root@SecondaryServerIP

and can confirm this command works
ssh -i /home/asterisk/.ssh/id_rsa root@SecondaryServerIP

Long shot but try fwconsole chown on both systems and see if that makes it work.

Thanks for the idea, but no luck!

Restorestatus :Backup file not found

Restorestatus :Backup file not found
where you store backup on a warm spare server ?
do you have folder created before doing a backup job ?

[dobrosavljevic (Igor Dobrosavljevic)]

Shouldn’t need to. All of that is automatic, the file is just not getting uploaded to the warm spare for some reason.

[dobrosavljevic (Igor Dobrosavljevic)]

Hmm, another shot in the dark, could be a bug in your particular version, have you made sure that everything is fully up to date?

This is the path set in the SSH file store

I checked on the warm spare server and

SOLVED

Turns out I needed to adjust the command from Warm Spare PBX 15+ Setup - PBX GUI - Sangoma Documentation (atlassian.net)

It says to use sudo -u asterisk ssh-copy-id -i /home/asterisk/.ssh/id_rsa.pub root@SecondaryServerIP
But it should be sudo -u asterisk ssh-copy-id -i /home/asterisk/.ssh/id_rsa root@SecondaryServerIP
