I've searched and seardched for 3 days and could not find a previous post for this particular issue. If one exists, plese link me to it and appologies.
I set up backup with the 7.2 update to allow scheduled backups sans problems. I run into an issue when the back up is attempted. The email shows
==================================
DAILY BACKUP TO WORKSTATION REPORT
==================================
Backup started at Mon Oct 22 03:00:03 2007
Backup of mysql databases has been done.
Mounting backup shared directory localhost/media/usbBackup
Backup temp directory /mnt/smb/tmp_dir/quietstorm.nttit.net is mounted and is writable
Using set number 0 of 3
Attempt to full backup
*** No backup allowed or error during backup ***
Can't create /media/usbBackup/quietstorm.nttit.net/set0 : mkdir /media/usbBackup/quietstorm.nttit.net: Input/output error at /etc/e-smith/events/actions/workstation-backup-dar line 143
=============================================
I have a seagate usb drive mounted to /media/usbBackup within the file system ext2. Is that wrong? Should I have created the partition in another file system. Should it be in another directory (mnt? maybe). Where do I go from here??
Thanks in advance...
