Sources upgrade - can't restore backups ('invalid parameters')
-
@jmccoy555 This doesn't appear to be related to the OP. However, I would suggest rebuilding using the latest source and then try again.
-
Ok - I created a new backup job, for a small VM (again, delta backup) - going to a new test remote.
The backup ran - as it's the first time, it did a full copy as you'd expect, and it completed ok.
I cannot restore it either - shows the same 'invalid parameters' error - and the log details shows the same '"should not contains property ["settings"]"'
Backend server is XCP-ng 8.2

Hi, don't know if you were suggesting I do the rebuild or @jmccoy555 - but I've tried rebuilding re-checking out - and yarn clean / yarn built et'al - and still have the same error. -
@tackyone Are you able to test this with XOA to check if the error also occurs there?
-
Just rebuilt to xo-server 5.81.2 / xo-web 5.86.0
Removing the Proxy from the remote and it looks like everything is good. Restored backup taken in Dec 2019.... so plenty of versions ago, and all is ok.
Backups still work with the Proxy.

@danp Hi - unfortunately not. I don't have access to XOA. I just tried to download the trial / starter edition, which can't restore - and I can't upgrade to the free trial - because I've already had a free trial
-
@danp I think there's something out of sync somewhere (though I was careful this was a new/fresh clone of git master) - I can't create VM's either (e.g. ""message": "should not contains property ["bypassMacAddressesCheck"]"".
I'll do a completely clean build not upgrade and see if it's still happening...
-
Ok, full rebuild from nothing seems to have fixed it... Bonus points if someone can suggest how I can copy the settings from the previous instance to this one?
/var/lib/xo-server/data/leveldb doesn't seem to like being copied (even with XO shutdown).
It'd be great to be able to pull the backup jobs over.
-
@tackyone Just export the config from the old VM and import into the new one
-
@danp I'd convinced myself that the 'Export Settings' option didn't work when XO was compiled from sources
I've just tried it now, and it does work - what was happening (literally all this time!) is Safari pops up the tiniest "Popup window blocked" icon in the address bar you've ever seen. Click that - and the download starts
-
FYI, you can always ask for another XOA trial when you need it
