#50 Backup warning: metadata

[Michael Eichenberger]

The backup warning needs to be changed according to the document "Sepiola_Version_2_Pflichtenheft_de_v01.04.odt" from the 23rd of March 2009 on page 8:
Meta Daten konnten nicht auf den Server hochgeladen werden. Diese muss zu einer klaren Fehlermeldung mit den entsprechenden Konsequenzen führen.

Do you have a scenario to reproduce an error while uploading meta data?

[Michael Eichenberger]

No, I don't have a scenario to test this. This warning should appear if the backup was ok, but the metadata file could not be uploaded. In my understanding, this happens in a second independent step? A possible scenario could be, that you change the permissions on the server for the medadata file (for instance, owner root and with read only access). Currently, the backup is stated as failed and not as warned.

[Daniel Tschan]

Changed in version 1.9.5. Failure to upload file permission metadata now results in a warning instead of an error. Failure to upload other metadata still results in an error, since a restore would not be possible in such cases.
