Since v8.2.3: "Backup failed: Too many executable files."

[simon]

Since the update to v8.2.3 (08.01.25), my backups have stopped running.

Error message “Backup failed: Too many executable files. Run ‘find /home/yellowtent/appsdata/ed9dfcbb-195e-45a1-91db-93ce9cbd42bd -type f -executable’ to investigate. Logs are available”.

I actually find 71728 lines.

However, I don't know what to do now. Can someone give me a tip?
The problem is similiar to https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/13047/since-update-to-v8-2-1-backups-fail-with-too-many-empty-directories/16, but theire is also no solution.
I create backups via sshfs (hetzner storagebox) and rsync.

This looks wrong with so many executables. Which app is this? You should be able to remove the executable bit with https://forum.cloudron.io/post/99844

It's Redmine. And if I look at it quickly, the plug-in files are affected. A lot different files: png, yml, rb, erb, js, css ...

Maybe then the plugin in question (if not all) have a faulty package. Such assets should really not be executable at all.

Hm, ok.
It seems that there are numerous executable files in my installation. In the plugins, plugin-assets, themes, files.
I have now changed everything and the backup will now work again. Thanks for your support.

Basically, this is a useful thing. However, I don't like the fact that the check has caused the backups of all other apps to be canceled as well. As an idea: wouldn't it perhaps make sense to check this independently of the backups?

Yeah, I think it's possible. Right now, we haven't focused on it because we have to then give feedback to the user in different ways when multiple apps fails but some succeed etc.
