Hi Markus,

See here: https://docs.bareos.org/Appendix/Debugging.html

> By default, *btraceback* uses *bsmtp* to send the traceback via email. Therefore it expects a local mail transfer daemon running. It send the traceback to root@localhost <mailto:root%40localhost> via *localhost*.

The last line of our btraceback script is:

$ cat /usr/sbin/btraceback
...
cat ${WD}/bareos.$2.traceback | \
/usr/sbin/bsmtp -h localhost -f root -s "Bareos ${DEBUGGER} traceback of ${PNAME}" root

Feel free to replace that mail address with one of your choice, or change the bsmtp to a different delivery method of your choosing.

It would be really helpful if we could get a copy of the traceback!

Kind Regards

Sebastian Sura

It's probably related to memory exhaust in the docker itself.

For the backtrace, if you can setup the mailing then the backtrace might be sent out of the docker when the crash occur.

    Calling: /usr/sbin/btraceback /usr/sbin/bareos-fd 10 /var/lib/bareos

    It looks like the traceback worked...

    unfortunately it´s a docker container in docker swarm, so i cannot
    access the trace file (at least i do not know how)
