  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.

Daily Backup on FTP server doesn't work

aculine

New Pleskian
Hi.
I've planned a daily backup (settings and data) on a FTP server, but it doesn't work. It creates the file on ftp folder but it's 0kb. Both passive and active mode doesn't work.
I didn't try with stopping sites, but I cannot do it.

If I launch manual backup, work fine.

I cannot find logs file for backup to analyze, where are located?


Thanks, Luca
 
ok, finally I found my log, thank you.

I'm getting a PORT problem:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<execution-result status="error">
  <object name="backup" type="backupowner">
    <message code="ApplicationException" severity="error">Cannot export dump file 'backup_info_1103280945.xml' to 'ftp://myUserName@myFTPServerIP/' [Transport error: unable to send directory to repository: Transport error: unable to put local file C:/Windows/TEMP/repo_transport_tmp_01cbed1c845ff720/backup_1103280945.zip to backup_1103280945.zip: Curl error: FTP command PORT failed]</message>
  </object>
</execution-result>

Can I set port 21?

I get this error ONLY on Scheduled Backup.

Thank you.
 
Strange. 21 port is default ftp port and I think that it shouldn't be changed. Are you sure that connection to FTP server via port 21 always works fine? Did you try to change mode of FTP server - active/passive?
 
Yes, both active and passive mode doesn't work. If I run manually, work fine both mode.

Logs says "FTP command PORT"...
Could be a firewall problem?
 
Samre problem

I have same problem. I am trying to upload backup files to personal FTP repository, but it doesn't work. I use same credentials which I am using to login into FTP through Total Commander, but it doesn't work. When I am setting up personal FTP repository in Plesk and I do some mistake in credentials, Plesk tells me that some info is wrong. So I am sure the credentials are OK and Plesk is able to connect to my FTP. However, the automated uploads just don't work.

I have noticed also one important thing - even if the credentials are OK, it takes about 3 minutes for Plesk to read the content. And after that it says there are no backup files there, although there are, just from different Plesk implementation/version...

What to do now?
