[Bug 347534] New: Backup - /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/ backup_cron stopped working after the YaST security update
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=347534 Summary: Backup - /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/backup_cron stopped working after the YaST security update Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: ASSIGNED Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: locilka@novell.com ReportedBy: locilka@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com CC: lslezak@novell.com, mvidner@novell.com Found By: --- -------- Forwarded message -------- Subject: [Fwd: Cron <root@linux> /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/backup_cron "profile=backup-sistema"] Date: Mon, 10 Dec 2007 16:35:43 -0500 From: Angelo Caprilli <xxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx> To: lslezak@suse.cz Hello there! There is something strange using the system backup packaged with OpenSuse 10.3. I cannot run the backup with the cron job. This is the original command launched by the cron job (it was built by Yast automatically): /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/backup_cron "profile=backup-sistema" I begun having this problem with OpenSuse 10.2 in November. Probably a security update has corrupted the script backup_cron. In fact it does not work either using cron or a terminal. I uninstalled then reinstalled the backup package but unfortunately only the updated version is downloaded and it does not work. Doing a manual backup, it works perfectly. Below I am reproducing the email sent by the cron job; if you want I can send you the script file. Thank you for your help.

The problem was caused by implementing feature #120292 "UI as a namespace" in yast2-core-2.15.7 (openSUSE 10.2). --- --- --- We need a maintenance update for 10.2 and 10.3. Ast: Please, provide a maintenance update if /needed/.
