Backups not listed

[BanditBBS]

See, then that is just confusing as ever, why wont it show mine, hmmm.

I just chmod 777 to /store , /store/backups and /store/backups/nagiosxi and now they are listed, so its definitely a permissions issue. Now to try and find out the proper permissions on the folders, can you show me yours on those three folders?

Code: Select all

[root@nagiosd1 scripts]# ls -ld /store
drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 4096 Oct  7  2014 /store
[root@nagiosd1 scripts]# ls -ld /store/backups/
drwxr-xr-x. 5 root root 4096 Oct  7  2014 /store/backups/
[root@nagiosd1 scripts]# ls -l /store/backups/
total 12
drwxr-xr-x. 5 root   root   4096 Apr 10 07:00 mysql
drwxr-xr-x. 2 nagios nagios 4096 Apr 10 14:53 nagiosxi
drwxr-xr-x. 5 root   root   4096 Apr 10 08:00 postgresql

Seems 755 is what is needed. Weird that RW wasn't enough for GUI to read the fodler but instead needs RX.

Thanks!

edit: Even weirder, new backups being created fine, but the test permissions button says not writable by nagios user or group.

Banditt, I think a local backup that is created on demand, uses group apache (the user apache is also in the nagios group).

The scheduled backups are run by a cron job (I think is root). And what the local permissions test should have is the following:

drwxrwxr-x 2 nagios nagios 4096 Apr 12 17:01 /store/backups/nagiosxi

give both the owner and group write permission as well.

You can close this up, we're all good, all backups are working fine now.

We'll go ahead and close the thread. Thanks.
