Backup configuration option missing in menu

OS Name/Version: Ubuntu Linux 24.04.3

Product Name/Version: 2.6.4 - 20251114.1

Problem Description: After creating a new instance, the Backup creation menu option is not present to select.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Step 1 Create New Instance
  • Step 2 Install server/application
  • Step 3 Look at menu to set up backups.

Actions taken to resolve so far:

That usually means it wasn’t able to read/write to the backup directory. Check the logs.

ok, I just changed and looked, I am not a great linux admin/user, but decent with windows.

In terminal it shows this for amp user

rh_quarterback@ampappserver:/mnt/backup/ampbackups$ ls -ld
drwxrwxr-x 2 amp amp 4096 Dec 4 06:53

in the FileManagerPlugin.kvp file it has

FileManager.AdditionalVirtualDirectories={“backups”:“/backup/ampbackups”}

In the storage setting in AMP instance I have

Physical and Virtual set to /mnt/backup/ampbackups/ maybe this is wrong I need just /backup/ampbackups/

??

and I did update this morning

Hooray! AMP is up-to-date.

Currently running version 2.6.4.2 - 20251203.1

Are you running the instance in a container? Have you verified that the directory exists and that the amp user can access it?

Yes they are running in a container and yes I am able to log in as the amp user create folders and files in the /mnt/backup/ampbackups/ I made a testpermissions folder, then under that created a test document file

ok I think I have it sorted out, took a lot of manual editing (personal learning) and followed this guide for EACH instance, plus setting the token in the interface for the storage, took a few times to make everything stick. Probably me doing something out of order, but I have the backup menu and testing backups created where I expected them.
