Hello, wondering if there is a way for an email notification to be generated if ispconfig fails to successfully perform a configured backup, sometimes this happens for instance if there is insufficient disk space for instance. By default the backups will silently fail. Thanks in advance.
Failed backups are logged with loglevel 'Warning', when you set email notification under system > server config to loglevel warning, then you should get notified about failed backups by email.
ok thanks Till, to which email address will the notifications be sent? any simple way to trigger a notification for testing purposes?
The admin email address that you have set under System > Interface config. Not really. The backup plugin checks for the return value of the backup (tar / zip) command.
I found one server with an event I could trigger with loglevel error, the admin name & email is set but no email is being delivered. Have checked the maillog for the admin email address and postfix is not attempting to send a notification that I can see, I looked through the ispconfig logs and not finding any trace of this. Is there a log I can look in to debug where the problem might be? thanks
In that setting I have "Warnings" selected for "Send email to admin starting with the following level" so that looks correct. I have worked on this before and never gotten it to work. Definitely interested in whatever else can be done to debug it. Thanks
Not to my knowledge, to make sure I've tested it and this works fine from command line: php -r 'mail("<testemailaddress>","Testing php -v ".phpversion(),"php on ".gethostname());' So that works fine but ispconfig notification mails are not initiated for some reason. Thanks Till
