I had a working SSH destination, but all the sudden it's not working. Validation fails, and the logs does not reveal much info.

SSH Destination Fails
Re: SSH Destination Fails
Hi,
Which JetBackup version ?
Which JetBackup version ?
Re: SSH Destination Fails
I'm using stable Tier 4.0.4-1
Re: SSH Destination Fails
Please try the following -
1. Edit backup destination
2. Set new ssh credentials
3. Leave the "key" field empty
It should try and login, if successful -> it will push the key to the remote destination.
If not, can you confirm a simple ssh login from the server itself to the backup destination works ?
For example -
ssh [email protected]
Please clarify
Thanks !

Re: SSH Destination Fails
Loggin in from source server to backup server works ok.
I tried editing but I got "Error:Unable to create destination dir"

Re: SSH Destination Fails
Are you using root or "regular" user to connect ?
What exactly did you configured inside "Backup Directory" section ?

Re: SSH Destination Fails
I'm using root, and for Directory It's currently set as "/home/storage/server12.mydomain.com/accounts" I have also tried adding it with "./" But still same issue
Re: SSH Destination Fails
I have exactly the same problem, until yesterday it worked perfectly, today I do not know what happened and I can not contact anyone to help me solve this.
