Hi, I'm running on ubuntu 18.04. A number of my files are failing to backup, with the detailed report stating "permission denied".
How can I make sure that cloudberry is running as root and able to backup everthing? Is there an installation or run-time setting I've missed somewhere?
This is a slightly aging post, but I just wanted to add a note - this did help quite a bit, but I'm still getting more issues than I like. More research to come. My system runs Mint 19.3 (Ubuntu under the hood).
Here's the link to the mac/linux knowledge base with similar advice: link, but Matt's suggestion to specify root is not present in the KB.
Just working through similar issues, but I'm finding I have no directory:
/opt/local/CloudBerry\ Backup/etc/plans/
My install is in: /opt/local/CloudBerry Backup
And I have no etc/plans sub folders and no *.cbb files anywhere to be found.
My backup was configured to save plan config on the external storage (BackBlaze B2). So, I presume that's the only location of my .cbb files? In which case, how does one manage their permissions?
Further to this, is there a recommended approach to backing up multiple user home directories? Each user setup their own backup plan with their own permissions? Create a backup plan as root which has permission to read all user folders? Or add an admin-backup user to all user groups, and create plans under that user (assuming all user files are readable as their group)?
If you're unsure of the logs location it's better to contact support, the configuration files are always saved locally.
As for the multi-user setup, the most secure option is to change permissions for each plan individually.
Setting root permissions is just the easiest option and suits most of our clients.
