I'm getting these lately:

An error occurred during the backup (id=1) said:
Error Compressing the backup file /home/admin/admin_backups/admin/backup/home.tar.gz : /bin/tar: .php: Cannot savedir: No such file or directory
/bin/tar: .ssh: Cannot savedir: No such file or directory

Error Compressing the backup file user.admin.<user>.tar.gz : /bin/tar: backup: Cannot savedir: No such file or directory

Anyone havs any clue on why this is happening ?
 
Might there be 2 backups running at the same time?
Before a backup starts, the assembly area (/home/admin/admin_backups/admin) will be deleted.
Also, after a backup ends, the assembly area is deleted.

So if there are 2 backups working on "admin" at the same time, the 2nd backup to start will delete the data from the 1st.
Also the 1st backup that finishes, will delete the backup from the 2nd.

Where possible, use single backup crons.
If there are multiple, space them out so that they don't overlap.
