    Hello. I cannot provide too many details but auto backup stopped working for me quite some time ago.

    This happened at the same time Dropbox updated it's API. This is how I have it configured:

    http://hastebin.com/dirumucoze.swift

    However, backups are never effected. It just stopped working from one day to another.

    Try changing destination path to a single folder name (no /), because AutoSaveWorld currently have problems with folder walking (actually it just doesn't do it, so you never know if it really works).

    @Shevchikden: Go

    The config reverts itself back when I change it. I think I need to stop the server for this.

    Uh, looks like there was a slight rollback on this chat. Last thing I said was that I finally set the destination to a single directory by stopping the server (The only way I can edit your config without it reverting).

    However, the backups are still not happening.

    Is there anything else I can do to try to workaround this?

    Got the same issue when updating to api v2. For whatever reason zip backup is not working.

    So try disabling zip.

    Try latest dev build, i migrated to dropbox api v2 here, and also made some fixes to backup mechanic (except for localfs, i don't even remember what is happening there and why anymore).

    Allright, I did what you said. It wasn't enough, however now I'll try your latest dev.
    Thanks :)

    Hi. Would you mind fixing the Jenkins link? I can't get to the site.
    Have a good year :)

    4.1.5 dev:
    https://hastebin.com/omohizujod.swift
    Still no backups.
    Sorry for late response. I tried everything, and made sure it's not working.

    Have no idea works fine here. Try a clean server installation and a new dropbox account?

    Will do.

    I did what you said, except for creating a new account. I might try creating a new one, as I have a test server running 24/7 right now attempting to send backups, to little success.

     

    Anyway, I wanted to ask about this: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/drive/ETbHUjzOvG4;context-place=forum/drive
    I've been asking on the google drive help forums about those two fields you ask for sending backups to google drive, as an alternative.

    Could you give further details about authfilepath and rootfolderid?

    I will make a video about how to configure google drive account this weekend.
    But basicly:
    1. Create a folder to which you want your backups to go to.

    2. Go to google developers console and enable google drive api

    3. Create an managment account for automated programms usage

    4. Share your folder to that account/user

    I guess I'll wait for that video. I have no idea how this works.
    I've tried enabling the API and all that, but I still don't know what data I need to insert on the fields.
