Hello!
Backups get stuck generating and never finish.
I try to make one and it tells me that there is another in process that never ends.
As I did in vesta, I have tried to delete the backup.pipe file and recreate it, then delete the

rm /usr/local/hestia/data/queue/backup.pipe
touch /usr/local/hestia/data/queue/backup.pipe

this let me re-create a new one, but the creation process does not finish anyway :frowning:

No need to double post, you’ll get an answer as soon as someone has time for it :slight_smile:.

I suggest to reboot the server, empty the backup pipe:

rm /usr/local/hestia/data/queue/backup.pipe
touch /usr/local/hestia/data/queue/backup.pipe

And manualy run the backup to validate the functionality: v-backup-user username

I have the same problem and I cleared the backup pipe file.

When I run the backup script, I get a message
Error: not enough diskspace available to perform the backup.

Does it mean that I dont have space for the user or dont have space in the backup folder?
Backup and home folder is partitioned by the way.

Furthermore, I have lots of space for home and the backup.

So my question is what does the error message means? Does it mean for the user plan?
Permission issue? I have other users with no problem
