Mastodon backups listed in a Cloudron-wide backup, but aren't actually backed up!?
-
@jdaviescoates That is what I assumed too, but there is no sign of the Mastodon app in the full Cloudron backup bucket, despite it being in the list of backed up apps shown in the Backup Dashboard of Cloudron.
In fact, since I've been trying to poke around, it appears that my MAstodon app stopped using the Minio destination and is instead backing up, or at least accumulating, data on the server that my Cloudron is on. The last files uploaded to the bucket was weeks ago, according to the Minio bucket. And nothing from Mastodon is showing up in the Cloudron bucket.... what is happening?

@girish No, actually, I was just looking, saw that this app is listed in my full cloudron backup, but isn't present in the actual Minio bucket. I downloaded the individual app's backup configuration which also says it was backed up to that bucket. When I then choose to download the backup (from the apps dashboard) it starts something, then fails, and actually a get a humungusly long url on a page that says
This app is currently not responding. Please try refreshing the page in a few minutes..What in the world? Why is this app NOT getting backed up, while all the records say it is?? It can't be the S3_ENABLED=true in the env file because when i check that bucket (same Minio server) there is only the data, not the app.
Where did the app go?? If I hadn't had a full disk backup at SSDNodes I would have lost this app, and who knows what else.

Makes me wonder if you hit a bug that I fixed last week related to s3 api copy errors. The copy fails but the backup code incorrectly flags it as a success. (https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/commit/40bcfdba76bde24b7e9e50613b99c51889b30d00 is the fix).

@scooke before that, we should determine if that is actually the bug.
Do you see the app backed up under snapshot/ ? My fix was for the situation where the upload itself succeeds (into snapshot/) but the remote copy fails (thus no timestamped directories).

@girish I
s this /snapshot/, or /home/yellow/snapshot/? Thank you.Yes, it is in /snapshot (in the Minio bucket). Is this good?
@scooke Right, in the minio snapshot directory. So, is it also correct that there are no backups of any app, not just mastodon ?
The issue (I fixed) is that the minio URL entered in backups -> configure is incorrect. Did you put the bucket name at the end of the "minio url" ?

@girish the bucket name has its own box in which to enter. So no, i didn't add the bucket name as part of the url. But since everything else is backing up, how would this affect just the one app?
