You need to install rsync in the client (+info)
You need to copy Public Key to the client (+info)
After editing 'parameters.yml' you must clear the cache:
/usr/share/elkarbackup/bin/console cache:clear --env=prod
Probably the error is caused by a temporary file. You can exclude the directory to avoid same error.
If your backup location directory is, for instance: /var/spool/elkarbackup
Check backup location directory's permissions:
getfacl /var/spool/elkarbackup
You must have something like that:
# file: /var/spool/elkarbackup
# owner: elkarbackup
# group: elkarbackup
user::rwx
group::r-x
other::r-x
Otherwise, fix it removing all extended ACL entries:
setfacl -bn /var/spool/elkarbackup
And restore the default permissions:
setfacl g::r-x /var/spool/elkarbackup
setfacl o::r-x /var/spool/elkarbackup
Yes. Add "config" in your Job URL: http://myelkarbackup/client/1/job/1/config
No, Rsync (Rsnapshot) does not preserve Windows files permissions.
There is a pending job running linked to the same task. You can kill the process and remove the pid file. If you always have the same problem, check the following possible causes:
- This issue can be caused by a bad schedule. You should know that Elkarbackup will automatically manage multiple task levels related to one job (hourly, daily, monthly, etc) when they are scheduled the same day and at the same time. If they have different time configured, it might be a conflict if the first task didn't finish before the second one start time (#106).

You need to modify Quota option (Client edition). You can set -1 to disable quota.
NOTE: It seems that this issue is fixed in RSnapshot 1.4
No. RSnapshot 1.3.1 doesn't allow special characters on snapshots root or backup point. Our advice is to put it inside a normalized directory name. You can fix that using symbolic links. Yes, also on Windows: mklink /j h:\mydir "h:\My Directory"
NOTE: this will change in ElkarBackup 1.1.5
The recommended way is using the quotation mark: /tmp/Documents?and?Settings
Yes. You should use backslashes: directory\ with\ spaces
If you have a version older than 1.1.3 and it doesn't work, try with: 'directory with spaces'
You can also use ?: /tmp/Documents?and?Settings
Currently, we only support the "Enqueue now" option from web UI. It allows you to add one or multiple jobs to the queue (check de Status window). The scheduler will start running in less than a minute.
Note: the Enqueue now option will only run the lowest retain level (the one that syncs). It can provoke a backup rotation in that level, meaning the loose of relevant information.
Alternatively, you can test your policies passing the "tick" command a specific date and time:
su - elkarbackup
bin/console elkarbackup:tick "2018-10-15 21:00"
The above command will run all the backup jobs corresponding to that day and time.
Note: the old run_job command has been deprecated since v1.3.0
Note: if you run the "Tick" command without any argument (no date and time specified), it will take the current date and time by default. In those cases, take into account that the "Tick" command might be launched more than once in the same minute and it will enqueue the same jobs again.
After ElkarBackup 1.2 you can "Run now" a job remotely. To do that, you need to generate a token in the client configuration window:
curl -k -d "token=0602f4a69af07fcb1327cc8d3f1371e7" https://192.168.33.10/client/1/job/1/run/usr/share/elkarbackup/bin/console elkarbackup:create_admin --reset
