auto backup failing....

[Skywatch]

Since the update to stretch I no longer get auto snap image backup to the server.

Checked fstab and /etc/default/xbian-snap and that's all as it was too...I also tried to see if the mount was working and this confuses me a bit.....

Terminal

xbian@cinema2 ~ $ cd /mnt
xbian@cinema2 /mnt $ ls
325 540
xbian@cinema2 /mnt $ cd /mnt/540
-bash: cd: /mnt/540: No such file or directory

It has affected all xbian pi2 'stretch' builds, but the pi1 'jessie' seems to be working as expected...

Why is it always me?

[Nachteule]

XBian converts network mounts in fstab (nfs and cifs) automagically into autofs mounts.

So, problably autofs service has been died. You could restart autofs and see if you can access your mount folders

Code:

sudo restart autofs

Ah, hold on which kernel version are you running?

4.9.x or 4.14.x

If you're running 4.14 from staging repo, you probably have Samba issue, since starting with kernel 4.13 the kernel guys has been changed default smb protocol from NT1 aka SMB1 to SMB3

Thanks

I'm using kernel 4.14.14 - So I guess that is causing this to happen? I checked the SD/USB devices and anacron is making backups to there as it should, just not to the cifs mounts anymore.....

At least this time it isn't me going mad!

Ok, so you have to add vers=1.0 as mount option

[Skywatch]

That did the trick!

Cheers....and let me take your reputation to 100, you deserve it!

Yeah, I fell in the same pit after installing 4.13 kernel, some months ago
