v7rc3 I’ve been messing with this for a few days without success, so finally I went back to the basics. Created a virtualbox vm, installed samba dc and backup, set up some users. Yesterday, I made sure it was up to date on software and let backup run lastnight, successful. Created a second vm on …

The bug is finally closed, maybe we will find some corner case in the future, but for now everything seem to work as expected. To fix the issue we had to update 6 packages! I would really say my thank you to @fasttech for this hunt and the hard (and boring testing)! Big thank you also to @filippo…

Try the yum command without the .rpm packages extension

[image] dnutan: Try the yum command without the .rpm packages extension dammit… thank you sir.

@giacomo my first attempt failed. I… installed the two rpm’s on a current vm with samba dc, backup, nethserver some users/groups and files and *** php scl set to global 5.6 *** , rebooted, executed a backup. Then started a fresh vm, updated to rc3… now the installation of the two rpm’s also instal…

@giacomo I suppose, I should not have installed the new nethserver dc rpm in the fresh install… or… hmmmmm… I cornfussssing myself now, how can I test this if restore is going to pull from the standard repo… hmmmmm…

The only way to test it on a clean machine is enabling the testing repo: you need to set enabled=1 inside the NethServer.repo file.

[image] fasttech: now that we’re on github, we don’t “take ownership” of the issue if we’re testing? I don’t see any way to do so. Your user account must be member of IssuesTeam on github. Now, you’ve been invited!

@giacomo I also wonder if I screwed up the backup by applying those rpms to the vm and executing a backup.

[image] fasttech: I’m guessing from my searching this might be it; /etc/yum.repos.d/NethServer.repo idk. Yes it is. You should simply set enabled=1 under [nethserver-testing] section. Take your time, there is no rush: in the meanwhile we are testing the fix internally :wink:

@davidep @giacomo I failed again attempting to restore the dc vm. I’ll leave the machine running if you have any log searches you’d like me to run from the console, that’s all that’s available… sshd is dead. You can see from the yum log that both the packages in testing are installed. [image] [i…
