What errors in logs? Cron daemon running?

how to check it

 

[SimpleSonic]

Have you checked Messages in DirectAdmin for any backup related errors?

If backing up remotely, have you verified the remote backup location is accessible and working properly?

@hmaddy when you run manually it works? if yes - its cron issue.
depends on OS:
systemctl status crond
or
systemctl status cron
or
service crond status

 

[hmaddy]

cron is working fine.

systemctl status crond
● crond.service - Command Scheduler
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/crond.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

so check logs, was your task started or not? also check cron task - maybe it configured wrong (to run once a year or so)

 

[hmaddy]

no error msgs on directadmin and its local backup only.

 

[Zhenyapan]

when you run backup manually it works?
check cron logs, was your task started or not?

Hello,

scheduled backup not working.

Try and fix permissions:

/usr/local/directadmin/scripts/set_permissions.sh da_files

it was a fix for another reported case.
