Remote Backup - ERROR: File Manager components are not installed

Community Support Backups

I have tried to set up remote backup, and I get the following error
ERROR: File Manager components are not installed.

What do I need to do to make sure backups are done remotely properly with Hestia? Any advice in general?

Thanks so much.

EDIT: Follow up question: can I disable local backup and remote backup still work as it is supposed to?

Honestly, I would take any advice on the best way to backup remotely, as I’d like to store regular backups and I do not have a ton of space on the server I’m trying to back up.

There is a know bug in 1.2.4.

You will need to remove $HESTIA/web/edit/server/index.php

and replace it with

Yes you can.

Hello eris,

I’m on 1.2.4, I replaced the file (in /usr/local/hestia/web/edit/server) but I still have the same error…

Please wait until 1.3.0 it will be released on the 27th of October.

It should be sorted by then.

Of course.

Just a question. Since it is my first time using HestiaCP, should I do something before the update? Backup some files or everything is taken care of?

Thank you for your answer.

Every thing should be done by the system it self. There is an automated system that creates the backup for all the config files
