    Seems like other people had the same problem before. For me everything runs on Zen 4c infra with ecc, zfs... It for sure is not hardware related. Backups worked until a few days ago. Something must have happened on cloudron's die, weird race condition, something. This needs checking, and backups need to be tested every single time automatically by cloudron to find the pattern and cause. It can't be that a tar is corrupted. If the source is corrupted, the tar should still be ok by itself.

    Is ZFS supported now?

      zfs is on the host. cloudron uses non-cow inside the vm.

        cloudron_tarExtract_Pipeline error.png

        Experiencing the same issue with CIFS mounts. Creating backups work seamlessly. When you go to restore it attempts to restore a small subset of files 3 times before displaying the error. I noticed when I go to restore the app it doesn't prompt for an encryption password, perhaps an internal issue with storing of the encryption hash?

          @dylightful Which provider are you using to backup files? What version of Cloudron are you using?

            CIFS Mount to storage provider - Version 9.0.13

            Backups work fine, restoration gives the above error.

              @dylightful the verification signature is now saved but there is no UI yet .

              Can you check if you have a .backupinfo file next to your .tar.gz ? Inside .backupinfo there will be a sha256 checksum. Can you check if sha256 sum matches with the .tar.gz file ?

                @dylightfu That is the main problem.... the restoration, not the backup... Can you give us storage provider company name?

                    @dylightful if there's a setup where we can debug, would be great since we are unable to reproduce it .

                                @dylightful If we can have access to your setup, can you write to me at support@cloudron.io ? Would love to debug and figure out why it's failing . Is this reproducible easily - meaning if you take a backup and restore, it fails?
