I have this message in the task log on pbs :

Code:

i think the backup is ok , we see the the files, but at the end we have the message with the error 404 on client.log.blob.

We use the promox-backup-client for the backup off a physical server.

Is it a problem or not ?
 
some more context would be nice to have:
- version of client and server
- how you created the backup
- what you are not attempting to do when you see that error in the task log

in general, the client log file can be provided by the client (vzdump uses this to upload a log of the backup task after it has finished), but it's optional. if you manually invoke proxmox-backup-client but don't use the "upload-log" command, it will be missing.
 
Backup Server 3.1-2
proxmox-backup-client version
client version: 3.1.2 ( rpm generate from deb with alien )

the backup is create with a script


Code:
#!/bin/sh
LOG_FILE=/var/log/PBS_Backup_log.log
ERR_FILE=/var/log/PBS_Backup_error_log.log
 
exec 1>$LOG_FILE
exec 2>$ERR_FILE

export PBS_PASSWORD=cff8adaf-2fc
export PBS_REPOSITORY=toto@pbs!totovm@192.168.1.1:8007:Datastore1


/usr/bin/proxmox-backup-client backup root.pxar:/ home.pxar:/home usr.pxar:/usr opt.pxar:/opt var.pxar:/var varlog.pxar:/var/log boot.pxar:/boot bootefi.pxar:/boot/efi/ --ns toto

I didn't find specify the upload-log command, i don't see the option.

it's just a command for the client, like "backup" - see its man page ;) but like I said, you don't have to run it, it's optional.

I want to know the same thing, what happened to it, because we have the same issue in that Proxmox reports it as an error. So, surely there must be a need for it?
 
if you don't upload a log (like PVE does), there won't be one that the client can later download..
