[FIXED] Backups fail with "remote username contains invalid characters"

Post by dooh »

Hi,

LE. SSH(Legacy) Plugin update failed because of unresponsive IPv6 IP, change the preference to IPv4 and updated the plugin manually, seems to work now.

Code: Select all

Invalid plugin URL provided (https://repo.jetlicense.com/plugins/jetbackup5-plugin-destination-ssh-1.1.4-9.zip)
Since last stable release, 5.3.14.1 all of our servers fail with

Code: Select all

 [ERROR] remote username contains invalid characters
. Reindex does not work, backup does not work, download does not work. What did break in the release?

Thanks

Hello dooh,

We have identified an issue connecting to the Plugin Repository. As a workaround, if your server is using IPv6, can you please try whitelisting our repository's IPv6 address?

Code: Select all

repo-prod-ams3.jetlicense.com - 2a03:b0c0:2:d0::16a1:7001
If using IPv4, please try forcing and IPv4 connection by adding the following to your server's /etc/hosts files:

Code: Select all

64.225.76.83 repo.jetlicense.com
Once done, please reinstall the SSH (Legacy) plugin (Plugins >> Available Plugins >> SSH (Legacy) >> Reinstall) and restart the JetBackup service.

Code: Select all

service jetbackup5d restart
If the issues continue to occur, please reach out to our Tech Support team by emailing [email protected] or through your client area.
