SSHFS backups failed
-
Hi all,
I just moved my backups to a Hetzner storagebox and last night was the first trial of a full backup. This morning I saw this error:Command failed with exit code 1 (EPERM): df -kPT /backups_sshfsI did some Googling but I am coming up short as to why this error is occurring. I can supply logs if anyone requires them.
Any ideas? -
How is your mountpoint setup? I am using the very same setup with hetzner so that should work.
The exact line in fstab should look like mentioned at https://cloudron.io/documentation/backups/#sshfs
I guess we can improve the validation code for the mountpoint further. I wasn't sure how strict it has to be. -

[username]@[id].your-storagebox.de:. /backups_sshfs fuse.sshfs defaults,allow_other,_netdev,port=23,IdentityFile=/home/yellowtent/.ssh/id_rsa_rfc.pub,reconnect,uid=yellowtent,gid=yellowtent 0 0The ssh key is sitting in the /home/yellowtent/.ssh folder and the /backups_sshfs folder is owned by yellowtent user except when the mount us connected then it shows ?:? for the user and group.
The mount is currently showing:cd /backups_sshfs -bash: cd: /backups_sshfs: Input/output error -
That looks like some more generic mount point issue. sshfs is a fuse mount on linux, can you explicitly
umountand thenmountit again? Also check kernel logs why it didn't properly mount.@nebulon I had to reboot for security updates but I can't see anything in the logs. I did a
mount /backups_sshfsbut it seems to ask me for the password to connect but the ssh key is present plus when I use thesshfscommand manually it uses the key. So a little confused! -

-
Ensure that the local mount point is owned by yellowtent:yellowtent
-
Before creating the fstab entry, please try to mount on the command line.
sudo sshfs -o port=23 -o allow_other,default_permissions,uid=1001,gid=1001,IdentityFile=/home/yellowtent/.ssh/id_rsa user@host /backup_sshfs/
I have used sudo because I am assuming that you are not logged in as user yellowtent.
