Hi guys,
Is there a good backup Plugin/Docker with a Windows/Linux client that I can install on OMV4 that will schedule a backup of my files to my OMV, with version retention?
Thanks

I use UrBackup. Can be installed as Docker or natively on Debian. On OMV4 there is also a plugin, which does almost the same as installation from CLI.
Thanks for the reply
I installed it as a plugin, I changed the backup directory to "/sharedfolders/Backup/UrBackup"
Now I have a "err_cannot_create_subdir" error
How do I set the user UrBackup runs under?
I changed the backup directory to "/sharedfolders/Backup/UrBackup"
Did you create the directory from CLI or in the GUI of OMV as shared folder?
To create it as shared folder should be the way to go. Or change the ownership from CLI.
On my system owner is "urbackup" and group is "users"

I created a urbackup user in OMV
I have a shared folder /sharedfolders/Backup, I gave user urbackup R/W permission
I opened /sharedfolders/Backup folder in explorer and created a new folder urbackup
I think you have to check the permission on filesystem level.
But first try to replace /sharedfolders/ with the complete path. Something like /srv/dev-disk-by-label.....

Same error
And now I have another error:
(err_long_create_failed). No such file or directory (code: 2)
UrBackup Server has trouble storing files to backup storage with the maximum
file name length it was compiled with (max 255 bytes). There might be
issues when backing up files/folders with long file name.
Can you post the output of
ls -l <path>
Replace <path> with the path you entered in the GUI of Urbackup as backup location.

I see it did create 2 folders, but I still see the 2 errors...
root@storage:~# ls -l /srv/dev-disk-by-label-Storage/Backup/UrBackup/
total 16
drwxrwsr-x+ 2 root users 4096 Dec 14 12:01 clients
drwxrwsr-x+ 2 root users 4096 Dec 14 12:01 urbackup_tmp_files
root@storage:~#
I watched the video...
And on my Windows client status = No internet server configured

ok if you are on the same network and not connecting from WAN
drwxrwsr-x+ 2 root users 4096 Dec 14 12:01 clients
inside you should find the data from your clients

I know I should find it there, but the folder is empty...
Do you see the clients in the GUI of Urbackup?

Yes, I did see.
But then I decided to remove the plugin and install it via Docker, now I don't get the error messages, but I can't get the client to connect...
The clients connect to the first server they find. Probably a different docker is detected in docker than using the plugin. So you have to make clients forget about the plugin server.
I suggest you search in the urbackup forum.

I finally got it to work!
After I played with the Docker a little bit, I removed it and reinstalled the plugin version
I don't know how or why, but it is working now...
Thanks for all your help
Puh, glad it is working for you
Which docker image do you use?
Which docker image do you use?
I'm using the plugin, not Docker...
