PROBLEM: Can´t backup VMs anymore

Hey everyone,

after I had a IP double use (accidentally) I get errors while a backupjob,
The Log shows the following error:

storing login ticket failed: $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR must be set
INFO: Backup job finished with errors
TASK ERROR: job errors

The funny part is, that I only get the task error on one host.
On the other 2 Hosts the Backup job finished with errors but was OK:

storing login ticket failed: $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR must be set
INFO: Backup job finished successfully
TASK OK

I tried to recreate all credentials by using pvecm updatecerts as mentioned in a other similiar problem.

any help is appreciated.
Kind regards,

Ah yes, a colleague just hinted at this message always appearing now.
So the issue might be something else.

Please provide the complete task log of the backup job that failed. And the journal/syslog containing the whole time the job was running to see if there were some other issues during that time.
 
here is the Log of the task:

Kind regards,
 
It seems the issue was the following:
Code:
INFO: include disk 'scsi0' 'LUN2_1:vm-109-disk-1' 20G
ERROR: Backup of VM 109 failed - no such volume 'LUN2_1:vm-109-disk-1'
Does that disk still exist? Or did you delete it without removing it from the config of VM 109?

Does that disk still exist? Or did you delete it without removing it from the config of VM 109?
I just fixed that error, I will lookout if the task still fails.
The VM was recreated after a failure of the filesystem after a hot reboot (system hang).

I will update you later.

So i manually run the task and its not failed anymore.
But the weird text is still inside:

Yes, you can ignore that text.
It was introduced during a bug fix and will be removed shortly.
 
I just fixed that error, I will lookout if the task still fails.
The VM was recreated after a failure of the filesystem after a hot reboot (system hang).

I will update you later.
How did you fix this? I restored my system from a previous snaptshot. The config is still there but but the disk isn't (from the host - not the backup). When I try to restore, i get the same error as you
 
I am now experiencing the same issue.

I attempted to restore an LXC and it resulted with

It then destroyed my LXC and it no longer shows up in my VM/CT list.

I've tried creating another LXC with an identical ID and then attempted to restore from backup again. It again resulted in my LXC being destroyed and removed from the list.

Any pointers on how I can restore this LXC? I'd really like to get it back up and running
 
This is a different issue, please open a new thread for it.
 
Also getting this? Runs fine running manually.

Mine backs up the host though maybe just a warning because its running via cron? $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR must be set

It's neither on pve-enterprise nor on pbs-enterprise yet.

I assume you have the `pbs-no-subscription` repository configured on your PBS?

If you want to use it on PVE you'll have to add the `pve-no-subscription` repository. Run `apt update` followed by `apt install proxmox-backup-client`.
Afterwards you can disable the `pve-no-subscription` repository again.

I'm still seeing the same issue with proxmox-backup-client 2.3.3 launched from a vzdump hook skript.

...
Code:
INFO: client version: 2.3.3
INFO: server version: 2.2.5

....

This causes pve to indicate the backup job failed, although it actually completed successfully.

No, the issue in your case is the line starting with ERROR.
ERROR: Backup of VM 100 failed - command '/root/vzdump-hook-script.sh backup-end snapshot 100' failed: exit code 255
Your hook script seems to be faulty.
 
Mira, well, for what it's worth: These are the last two lines in the hook script in question:

Code:
...
proxmox-backup-client backup root.pxar:/ --all-file-systems --backup-type host
proxmox-backup-client logout

I doubt that the hook script is faulty. But, rather, that the proxmox-backup-client logout is causing the problem
