Hi Guys,

I tried the API method which fails.

Error: Can't execute command (cd; pwd)

Here is my command:

Code: Select all

jetbackup5api -F manageDestination -D "action=create&type=SSH&disk_limit=95&options[path]=./jetbackup/&options[port]=23&options[timeout]=60&options[username]=u000000&options[host]=----.----.----&options[password]=----&name=SSH&options[freebsd]=true&options[hetzner]=true"

Any tips?

Hello Brooky,

This error indicates that the Linux commands "cd; pwd" cannot be executed in the destination. Kindly confirm if the ssh user is allowed to run the commands in the destination server.

Please note that we are using some additional Linux-based commands besides rsync, therefore the SSH destination must have a "Real" operation system at the other end (Redhat, Centos, Debian etc).

Here are some of the basic commands JB uses:

Code: Select all

touch
mkdir
ls
stat
rm
rsync
mv
cd
pwd
