It seems you are missing a forward slash in that url.
Fixed it on setting page, but it doesn’t work again.

2023-05-30 11:33:39 Remote: ftp://host.domain.com/BACKUP_VPS/admin .2023-05-30_11-33-39.tar
ftp: connect: Connection timed out
My FTP connections works fine…
you’ve a connection timeout, somehow your host can’t be reached. Try to use ftp client manualy and verify, where the issue is.
Using filezilla it works fine… I’m connecting to port 21 with FTP protocol (no ssl), user backup-vps and root folder /BACKUP_VPS
Why using this command v-backup-user admin the summary is 2023-05-30 11:33:39 Remote: ftp://host.domain.com/BACKUP_VPS/admin ? What is the /admin at the end?
How do you have it up in the settings:
on settings page I’ve this:
CHECKED Remote backup
Protocol
FTP
Host
host.domain.com
Port
21
Username
backup-vps
Password
entered
Directory
/BACKUP_VPS
echo -e “$(date “+%F %T”) Remote: ftp://$HOST$BPATH/$user.$backup_new_date.tar”
As $user is the admin I wonder is not set…
Create a test file test.txt
Try to run via cli:
/usr/bin/ftp -np host.domain.com 21 << EOF
quote USER backup-vps
quote PASS xxxxx
binary
"ls /"
quit
Yes it’s set, I can login with admin user on panel.
/usr/bin/ftp -np myhost.mydomain.com 21 Connected to myhost.mydomain.com.

But using filezilla it works…

I resolved.
I set an external IP address to my FTP passive configuration server.
Now it works, thank for your help and patience.
Last question, which command can I use to run a complete daily backup on cronjob?
Do will you add the feature to the gui in the future?
v-backup-users but it should be present allready
It is not every 5 hours but at 5:10 local server time.
OK, now here it’s 10:20am, so last night it didn’t work.
I checked server time zone and it’s ok.

Run v-backup-users
And check what happens if should add a new backup to this list
Yes, it adds a new backup to this list and save file to my ftp storage correctly.
I confirm that cron job doesn’t work…
