Automated backups stopped working

[ViAdCk]

Hello,

I just found out that since about a month ago, on 2 of our servers the automated weekly backups configured in directadmin have stopped working. This also affects resellers that have automated backups configured. If the backups are executed manually they work just fine. Crond is working just fine on both these servers.

As it has happened around the same time on both servers I suspect this is a directadmin issue. I have checked the directadmin logs but couldn't find any relevant information.

Does anyone know what could be wrong and what to look for?

Thanks in advance!

Do you see any message in /var/log/directadmin/system.log about backup being run?

Hello. We also had this problem after updating to version 1.648. In the logs, backups were launched, but they were not created, and manual creation went without errors. We were helped by changing the task for backups. We just went into the task change and saved it without changes. After that, the task began to work. On some servers it was necessary to delete all jobs and set them up again, copying the jobs did not help.
