I've been having problems restoring via Worldedit, it errors, or only pastes about 1 third or less and it is annoying as ....
I was hoping you could check or make it happen to let the plugin check the backupped file against the world, so that uneven bits surface.

Thanks.

We run into problems regarding restoring from backup, it would be nice if there was a section in SBACKUP that can exclude folders from backup....

Mojang did it again with 1.17...... no surprise at all, as usual....

The following error message pop up every time I try to backup (both manual and automatic):

Unable to backup file: (Server Location)\.\world\session.lock(The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file)

Server is on 1.16.4 paper

In reply to staplepuppy3521:

 It is not bad, I have it too but if you want to make sure your world is safe, turn the server off and perform a manual zip file.

Personally I can afford this, but you might not.

Hey it keeps saying another file is locking it so it ends up saving a zipped folder containing nothing but the plugins

Ah, been waiting for some updates in Spigot, Worldedit and Worldguard. Did august 20th a test and after those actions (updating etc...) I came to the conclusion that SimpleBackup works again.

The only error it gives is the lck file in the worldfolder, but I tried to restore a small part of the world and this worked nice as before.

So, from version 1.16.2, Worldguard 7.0.4-beta 1 and worldedit-bukkit-7.1.0 and it works...

in the latest 1.16 version SimpleBackup no longer creates files from the other worlds. Who also has the problem?

In reply to blueeyestar:

 Yup, found that it refused to go past a part of the world, so only backing up 1 world and not three (or so)

Going to check other servers now....

Yup, other servers too..... so, this is going on for a while now.... not making copies of all worlds per server....

Hope this can be fixed...

In reply to blueeyestar:

 Hey, just for comparison, we use Spigot 1.16.1, do you use Paper? because you have a different error = resulting in partially or no backup at all....

This must be fixed, don't you think so?

ps. these files are useless for restoring too, gives errors.....

Is there a way to have multiple start-times in the config? Example: I want to back up at 12:00 and then again at 18:00.

Works great with spigot 1.15.1

Thanks!

 Can you help me, I can't seem to grasp how to configure it to make a backup every 6 hours and and only keep one per day in the past, and delete anything older.

SB fails to notice any world but the default ones

I'm running two other worlds with folders named world_test and world_city

backup-worlds:
- world
- world_nether
- world_the_end
- world_test

This really could use a feature to unzip directly on the server. Having to download a backup, unzip then reupload a world when your host caps the FTP connection speed at 50kb/s is annoying as hell.

In reply to LaserCucumber:

Please add option to zip each world to its individual world zip, looking for a backupper to use for world edit snapshots, the old one i used is no longer active :(

This one looks promising

Well at least i can post using opera , this damn site wont play ball with my firefox ??

Edit - learned something new, the complete zip containing all my worlds also worked in worldedit snapshots awesome :)

Can't change interval. Always reverts back to default 1.0 in config..

How do I find the file that my backups go to? Plz help - I made a tnt wars server with plugins and I want to back it up so I can play on it and then reload it and play again.

@exolius

Hello! First i would like to thank you for this extremely useful plugin and the fact that it is not dead) I wonder is it possible to add Dropbox support, like may be here?

Update: auther won't add dropbox functionality. Instead if somebody would like to upload backups to their dropbox, one can use this. It uses unix cron jobs to regularly connect to dropbox and upload specified files/folders.
