Backup script Domoticz gives me headaches please help...
Posted: Wednesday 07 December 2022 20:45
Hi, I am using the backup script below which I found on domoticz wiki site. The backup part works great but I can't get the last part where folders older than xx days have to be deleted.
The script gets stuck on the next part.
When I run the script on the raspberry it gets stuck as shown below. No error message.
Any help is very welcome.
Perhaps there is an easier way to delete older content folders than I highly recommend.
Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
# Sript to automatic backup some stuff from Domoticz
# Run script every day from crontab.
# Example: sudo crontab -e
# Place this line below in your crontab document:
# 0 1 * * * sudo ~/domoticz/scripts/domoticz_backup.sh
# Backup wil start every night at 1:00 hour past midnight
