Hi there, I've also struck an issue with a backup triggered via the UI stuck 'in progress'.
Unfortunately the server is a very old version (15.1.0 running on RedHat) and isn't a candidate for an update just yet. The annoying thing is that the UI redirects to the message after a few seconds. The backup folder was created ( /var/lib/go-server/artifacts/serverBackups/xxxx) and files created as expected, but then things just stopped. Have restarted service, also rebooted server, also trashed the backup folder,.. it still thinks a backup is in progress. Server-wise, it's still working, agents connect, pipelines run, etc,.. just the annoying redirect. Is there a way I can tell it to forget about this backup ? Any advise would be appreciated. Jim..... P.S. Yes, I know the server needs updating to something more recent, but alas that's a whole different story.
