Full Cloudron Backups are failing on Cloudron version 7.7.0
-
If you’re on 22.04, you can safely update to the 6.x kernel: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2023/08/ubuntu-22-04-linux-kernel-6-2

@nebulon I have added the previously used cloudron backup directory as a volume in cloudron and mounted it.
I am about to run
cp -r /backups/2024-04-11-161325-365 /mnt/volumes/43cfcd99b751486ea8b2f56a194eb88b
Given that the snapshot directories are different in the local
/backups
folder vs the remote/mnt/volumes/43cfcd99b751486ea8b2f56a194eb88b
is that going to cause an issue now or later when I switch back to using the original cifs share as the backup destination? -
@necrevistonnezr The article made it sound like running
sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade
would get the update and this was back in 2023 so wouldn't we already have it given that cloudron runs apt to do updates periodically?I also didn't see anything that would update the kernel in the output of
sudo apt upgrade
listed in my post above. The article also indicated that this would be included in new ISO's but this server was just installed from a freshly downloaded iso about a month ago so it doesn't seem to be included in recent ISOs either. -
@necrevistonnezr I think if I am understanding this correctly ubuntu has this notion of a HardWare Enablement (HWE) kernel that they maintain for older releases but it isn't the default. So in my case I believe I would need to run
sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-22.04
to get the HWE kernel which would be a 6.x kernel and should resolve this issue. -
@skeats I have run
sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-22.04
, rebooted, confirmed viauname -r
that I am running6.5.0-27-generic
, reconfigured my backup settings (you probably wont have to do this as I was changing things to get a local backup), and now I can backup to the cifs share again.@necrevistonnezr Thank you for pointing me in the right direction to be able to use the HWE kernel to bypass this bug.

@ChristopherMag thank you because I ran that command and it worked and my backups are working again with the 6.5.0-27-generic kernel!

is non-standard and not run by Cloudron, I believe. -

@girish I don't think it requires seal encryption.
I believe using seal encryption causes a different code path to be taken that avoids the underlying bug but it is not the presence or absence of seal encryption in and of itself that I believe fixes the issue.
After a kernel upgrade this works fine without seal encryption though I have now enabled it as it seems like a good idea to have anyway so making it the default is probably a good idea but as long as Ubuntu 22.04's default kernel version is
5.15.0-102
this issue will likely still occur. -
