Maybe you should do that too? -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] Im Auftrag von David Aldrich Gesendet: Freitag, 29.

We have used the Hudson backup plugin for several years without problem, but the backups recently started to fail with this type of error: [ INFO] Backup started at [11/29/13 08:33:00] [ INFO] Setting hudson in shutdown mode to avoid files corruptions. [ INFO] Waiting all jobs end... [ INFO] Number of running jobs detected : 0 [ INFO] All jobs finished. [ INFO] Full backup file name : /Hudson_backup/backup_20131129_0833.zip [ERROR] org.codehaus.plexus.archiver.ArchiverException: Failed to read filesystem attributes for: /var/lib/jenkins/config-history/jobs/myjob/2013-11-27_08-09-33/config.xml org.jvnet.hudson.plugins.backup.BackupException: java.io.IOException: Unable to add config-history/jobs/myjob/2013-11-27_08-09-33/config.xml at org.jvnet.hudson.plugins.backup.utils.BackupEngine.doBackup(BackupEngine.java:115) at org.jvnet.hudson.plugins.backup.utils.BackupTask.run(BackupTask.java:130) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) Caused by: java.io.IOException: Unable to add config-history/jobs/myjob/2013-11-27_08-09-33/config.xml at org.jvnet.hudson.plugins.backup.utils.BackupEngine.handleFile(BackupEngine.java:90) at org.apache.commons.io.DirectoryWalker.walk(DirectoryWalker.java:367) at org.apache.commons.io.DirectoryWalker.walk(DirectoryWalker.java:364) The error recurs for random files. This seems to be problem https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-5968, which is unresolved and appears to be stuck. We need a reliable backup strategy. Any suggestions what we should do please?
