Problem Description

Issue

I have rconn setup to use my Google Drive for the instance backups.

I attempted to follow How to change backup locations and had no issues. However the backups are still going to the local drive in the instance folders.

I confirmed that rconn is working as through the Ubuntu server console(headless server) I can cd over and go into my Google Drive folders without issue. All permissions appear to be correct.

I do see this error in the ADS logs:
[18:44:40] [System Error/11] : Missing plugin/assembly: RCONPlugin (/home/amp/.ampdata/instances/ADS01/Plugins/FileManagerPlugin/RCONPlugin.dll) for FileManagerPlugin
[18:44:40] [System Error/11] : Missing plugin/assembly: RCONPlugin (/home/amp/.ampdata/instances/ADS01/Plugins/FileManagerPlugin/RCONPlugin.dll) for FileManagerPlugin

However I am unable to find where to install this plugin and I am not sure it will remedy the issue.

Thank you.

Reproduction Steps

  • Created instance. Shut down instance. Followed How to change backup locations. Started instance and ran a backup.
  • After following How to change backup locations. I setup a new instance(MinecraftBedrock). Backup still goes to the local instance folder and not the rconn/GoogleDrive folder.
  • Searched the forum for further answers but have not found any.

You can ignore that error, the ADS doesn’t use RCON so it’s fine

Thank you. I still need assistance with changing the backup directories as they have not changed.

If you’re using Docker, be sure that you’ve followed the part of the guide that explains how to add the bind mounts to the instances.json.
I haven’t had the need to set up alternate backup directories myself, so that’s all I can really suggest.

Might also want to test with a different folder on the local filesystem to see if it’s somehow the gdrive folder throwing things off

I am not using a docker. I installed a new hdd and got it mounted in Ubuntu. I created a directory on that drive for the backups. Repeated the steps to change the backup directory by editing the files and such to match the new drive directory.

The backups are still going to the default directory.

It would be nice if there was an entry in the backups section to specify where the backups would go in the menus.

Did you sudo chown -R amp:amp /the/backup/dir while setting things up?

That and a full reboot of the entire server seems to have resolved it. Thank you. No I am on to figure out how to get rclone to copy to my Google drive.

Thank you for your assistance.
