Re: [jffnms-users] Backing up Cisco configs

Hi Darren,

Then, are you sure the apache (or the cron job running user) has permissions to read that file?

Because we may be not able to read it to put it in the DB.

Is the tftpd root folder /opt/jffnms/tftpd ?? because if its not you have to change it, or change it in the JFFNMS setup page.

I can definitely tftp the running {or startup, or flash, or anything else}
to the tftp server.

Interestingly, when I look into the root of the tftp server, there is a file
called "40db171984bb2.dat" in this directory, which appears to be my
router's config, and which has a timestamp which would indicate it was
created right about the time the copy config event is scheduled to occur.

Also, if I run the tftp_get_host_config.php script manually, it gives the
same error, but creates a new file in the tftp server's directory, which
does contain the router's current config.

This is confusing. :-)

Darren,

The error means that the file counld't be downloaded.

So, please check if your tftp daemon allows creation of new files.

First try to send (using: copy running-config tftp) a file to the tftp server, if you see it in the /opt/jffnms/tftpd folder, then the tftpd is correctly configured.

You can try the examples in the docs/unix/ folder.

Folks.

I've got one of my routers setup in jffnms to do a nightly backup of its
config.

I've checked the log for the tftp backup, and have the following error
mesage

04:02:05  :  H   4 : 172.16.1.2 : cisco_cc : Error Storing the file in DB
(4276.11 msec)
04:02:05 TIMES  : Total Time 4383.25 msec.

Any hints on what could be causing this? I've just run the upgrade to


0.7.8,

but had NOT enabled the config backup before doing the upgrade, so I'm
pretty sure it's not an upgrade issue.

Thanks.
