[RESOLVED] - restore not working at all on latest snaps, nanobsd
-
i have added it to redmine, could u plz brief on how to restore using serial console or SSH etc in such a situation?
-
Do you get the confirmation that it is restoring, but it never reboots?
-
actually the confirmation never comes at all and page status shows as opening and after some timeout value the pages goes done but instead of showing confirmation, in firefox a file download pop up appears and file name as diag_xxx.php , i forgot what was the name in xxx
-
Hmm, I've seen that one before.
-
This appears to be an HTTPS issue. It works fine on HTTP but not on HTTPS. In part, anyhow.
On HTTPS you get a white screen and it halts, on HTTP it says it worked but doesn't reboot.
-
After some more research, this appears to be a couple different things.
The main issue was that the reboot process was spawning a shell to do its job instead of using the internal function. For whatever reason, this was locking PHP even though the same command works fine from the CLI. I fixed this and it works fine now.
I was getting a blank screen when I submitted a backup at first but now I can't reproduce it. I'm not sure if it has something to do with the size of the backup or what.
-
In my earlier post, I meant to say I haven't seen that before.
-
im using HTTP and for me the confirmation never came using firefox, the page just said loading till the browser reached timeout value or so then that php page download popup came so for me basically nor did it restore nor reboot, might be true that php hangs or so
-
The limits on the server are set higher, but it may also be that the config contains RRD data and can be quite large (mine was 4MB)
-
my RRD data i never backup and its disabled so config file is just few KB only.
try setting web to HTTP, then reset to factory defaults, reboot and then try restoring
-
u can check my config file
-
That config is incomplete. Rename it to .txt and attach if you want to put it here.
It's kind of a moot point though because I made changes to the restore process yesterday, so a test is somewhat meaningless right now unless you're running on the most current code.
The current snapshot has issues though, wait for the next one.
-
currently on the 17th may
could u delete it once u have seen it?
-
I downloaded it and deleted it.
-
tried it on the 22nd may snap and restore works fine and even reboots fine now, thanks
