Backup FILES & DB

[Felix J. Mosquera M.]

Hi. I am new in ERPNEXT. I set up the first install in virtualbox. All is running OK. ....but!

I set to automatic backup in dropbox and this is not working. I receive the following msg in the email:

Backup Upload Failed

Oops, your automated backup to Dropbox failed.

Error message: Traceback (innermost last): File "app/setup/doctype/backup_manager/backup_manager.py", line 34, in take_backups_dropbox did_not_upload, error_log = backup_to_dropbox() File "app/setup/doctype/backup_manager/backup_dropbox.py", line 89, in backup_to_dropbox upload_file_to_dropbox(filename, "/database", dropbox_client) File "app/setup/doctype/backup_manager/backup_dropbox.py", line 149, in upload_file_to_dropbox dropbox_client.put_file(folder + "/" + os.path.basename(filename), f, overwrite=True) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/dropbox/client.py", line 321, in put_file return self.rest_client.PUT(url, file_obj, headers) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/dropbox/rest.py", line 264, in PUT return cls.IMPL.PUT(*n, **kw) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/dropbox/rest.py", line 210, in PUT return self.request("PUT", url, body=body, headers=headers, raw_response=raw_response) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/dropbox/rest.py", line 182, in request raise ErrorResponse(r) ErrorResponse: [401] u'Unauthorized'

Please contact your system manager for more information.

I wonder what can I do to backup/restore all the info in my ERPNEXT, in case i want to store it in a USB or some device, what files must i copy(paste) from(to) which folders.

Thanks.

Felix

Hi Felix,

We do not publish Dropbox API Keys as it is forbidden by Dropbox. 

You will have to contact dropbox for API keys i.e. Dropbox Access Key and Dropbox Secret Key.

For more info, read: https://github.com/webnotes/erpnext/wiki/Setting-up-Backup-Manager

Thanks,

Anand.

Hi Felix,

Now "Clear Cache & Refresh".

Go to Setup > Manage 3rd Party Backups and click on "Allow Dropbox Access".

For more info, read http://erpnext.org/docs.user.setup.third_party_backups.html

You need to backup you db (use mysqldump for a snapshot) and the public/files folder that has all the uploaded files.
