Proxmox backup script - not working

Help and Support
1

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I have tried to follow this tutorial: https://github.com/TheRealAlexV/proxmox-vzbackup-rclone#fromHistory to use rclone in proxmox and upload backups to drive.

Then used this: Google drive to configure it and I got no issues.

I can use "rclone copy /mnt/pve/disco4/dump remote:proxmox" in my host and the content of the folder "dump" is uploaded to my drive /proxmox folder, but when I use the script to do it automatically (created when I cloned repository and only modified to add folder and max age) it doesn't work.

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.

rclone v1.62.2

  • os/version: debian 11.6 (64 bit)
  • os/kernel: 5.15.104-1-pve (x86_64)
  • os/type: linux
  • os/arch: amd64
  • go/version: go1.20.2
  • go/linking: static
  • go/tags: none

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

Google Drive

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

script:/root/proxmox-vzbackup-rclone/vzbackup-rclone.sh

The rclone config contents with secrets removed.

[remote]
type = drive
client_id = #######
client_secret = ########
scope = drive
token = {"access_token":"########>
team_drive =

A log from the command with the -vv flag

This is the log from proxmox:

hello and welcome to the forum,

what is the name of your remote?
the config file uses remote
the script uses gd-backup_crypt

might need to hardcode the config file using something like
--config=/root/.config/rclone.rclone.conf

3

The name of the remote is "remote"; where should I add "--config=/root/.config/rclone.rclone.conf"?

4

ok, but from your script gd-backup_crypt:/2023/05/27": didn't find section in config file

i am not not familar with that tutroial.
normally, add to the rclone command, as with any flag.

Maybe I could modify the name of my remote to fit the one in script? It's easier this way and I don't really care about the name.

Edit: exactly; I only had to change my remote name to the one in the script and now it works perfectly. Thanks!!
