Backup Domoticz

[Mrtn83]

Hello,

I have created a script with the wiki ( https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Daily_ba ... ternal_hdd ) to backup the database and the scripts to my NAS. It al works great besides the fact that the database file only contains the message unauthorized. If I FTP to the domoticz backup folder access is denied aswel. What am I doing wrong?

Are you using an Userid/Password for 127.0.0.1 or LAN ip addresses?
In that case you need to include the userid:password in the url:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/curl -s http://$userid:$password@$DOMO_IP:$DOMO_PORT/backupdatabase.php > /tmp/$BACKUPFILE

I used what was in the wiki:

/usr/bin/curl -s http://$DOMO_IP:$DOMO_PORT/backupdatabase.php > /tmp/$BACKUPFILE

understood, but the question was whether you are using security in Domoticz for the IP address you have specified in the batch file?
When that is the case you need to change that line as indicated or when you run it on the same server you could use 127.0.0.1 for DOMO_IP and add that to the networks in system setup: "Local Networks (no username/password):"

Thanks!
