      I found this error message reviewing my logfile. The list of auto backups seems complete and the error says "success", so what is causing this to show as an error?

      From manual run of logfile, the error flag is identical to logged cron jobs:

      2025-12-21 09:38:00 Error php /usr/local/sbin/acbupload.php: Completed AutoConfigBackup encrypted configuration backup upload to https://acb.netgate.com (success)
      2025-12-21 09:38:00 Error php /usr/local/sbin/acbupload.php: Starting upload of staged AutoConfigBackup encrypted configuration backups to https://acb.netgate.com
      2025-12-21 09:37:40 Error daemon php-fpm /services_acb_backup.php: Staging AutoConfigBackup encrypted configuration backup for deferred upload to https://acb.netgate.com
      

      Looking at the decrypted result, not each line but only start and finish, it appears complete:

      <?xml version="1.0"?>
      <pfsense>
      	<version>24.1</version>
      	<lastchange></lastchange>
      	<system>
      ==== <snip> ===
      		</schedule>
      	</mailreports>
      	<captiveportal></captiveportal>
      	<qinqs></qinqs>
      	<dhcpbackend>kea</dhcpbackend>
      	<kea>
      		<dnsreg></dnsreg>
      		<earlydnsreg></earlydnsreg>
      	</kea>
      </pfsense>
      

      The destination checks out, 14 hop traceroute:

      14  208.123.73.69 (208.123.73.69)  53.496 ms  52.608 ms  52.430 ms
      

      The backup count is 100, my logfile only goes back a week so I have no idea how long this has been going on. Short of deleting everything in autobackup and reconfiguring, is there anything I can check? I have checked the IP and cert as per a prior query on the forum.

      Thanks

        That looks like it's just at log level error not an actual error.
