Where is the error log?

We get "Errors detected in backup, check logs"

However, we cannot find log:

cat cat var/logs/xsibackup.log is empty ?!?

I am experiencing the same condition. var/logs/xsibackup.log is empty.

If you use the application interactively, the output is sent to the screen. That is the very same information that will be logged when you use it from a crontab.

Re: Where is the error log?

Yes; thanks; understood that now from the hidden "things have changed page". However, in that example, I don't get:

--on-success="backupId->005" \
--on-error="backupId->005" \

Maybe it could help to put two more simple example jobs 001 and 002 on that page.
