Bizarre Error during backup process (from the sources, 20.04)

olivierlambert

Hi,

Before opening a new thread, don't forget to take a look at XO Github repo in the existing issues.

It's already reported here: https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/5588

@julien-f even suggested a workaround.

Note that it can happen sometimes on master (despite we review all PR before merging on it), on the sources you won't have the level of QA you can enjoy on XOA. Which is the point, if you are using it into production, and it's "urgent", you'd better have support guys

@olivierlambert Thanks Olivier,

That report wasn't up yet when I ran into this yesterday, and I confess to not having looked this morning since I continued.

My assumptions were:

It's 99% likely to be my config and not a code issue.
Github support requests for source builds tend to be told to use the community forum instead

Hence posting here. Wasn't expecting a staff response, but appreciate it! I'll have a look at reverting to the suggested commit as @julien-f proposes. Commercial XOA isn't in the budget, but I appreciate the suggestion for that, too!

No worries, just leaving the message for others too It wasn't criticism

Thanks @olivierlambert and @julien-f !

I use the script https://github.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_updater , so executing sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_updater/master/xo-update.sh | bash -s -- -b 350b0c1 solved the problem.

Thanks!

@olivierlambert

Appreciate that! Don't suppose you're up for tagging or branching this commit as a defined release, are you?

But more seriously - I can also confirm that backups now work on my installation by reverting to commit 350b0c1e3cf600ecb7c75f76daeae93d44a37121.

No, it's meant like that As a community user, that's a useful contribution you can do to provide feedback when something is broken.

In exchange, you have the whole software for free, and we have a review process so master branch doesn't break a lot. And if it's does, you can rollback to a previous commit to solve it

@olivierlambert It's a fair trade.

Thank you all too. I ran into this issue last night, found this, changed to the alternative branch and boom it's working now.

When a merge makes it's way into XO source, is there a way to highlight this issue so I can move back to mainline?

Thanks again!

Just subscribe to the Github issue so you'll know when it's closed.

Yesterday I updated to the latest sources and my backup ran successfully, so it appears that this issue is resolved.

@carlosfrederico You'll need to switch back to the master branch before your normal update routine will work.
