affa schedule not running jobs

(1/3) > >>

gwalker-it:
Hey guys, I've just installed sme server 8.1 and affa backup.
I've configured a backup and set a time to schedule the backup to run but it doesn't seem to run.
I've set emailAddresses and chattyOnSuccess and I didn't get an email for the scheduled job.
When i run the job manually it runs the backup job fine and emails me the results.

I've searched the forum and online but can't see anything related to affa backup schedule.
Can anybody suggest where I could look to investigate this?

Thanks,
Graham

Stefano:
hi, welcome here

what about logs? /var/log/messages to start

gwalker-it:
Hi Stefano,

Looking in the affa files in the location you suggested, I can see that the only activity is when I'm logged in doing backups manually.
I've looked in a couple of the cron files, i can't see any reference to affa but I might be missing something.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Stefano:
did you follow all the howto page?

I guess you miss the

--- Code: ---affa --make-cronjobs

--- End code ---

step (I'm unsure of the syntax..)

gwalker-it:
Yes, I followed the instructions for sme server 8, I don't think I missed the make command.
I can see the affa cron file entries within /etc/cron.d I just can't understand why it's not running.
