just reading the bug notes of OP, the cause seems to pretty clearly be that the sbackup doesn't mount smb share if it's not already mounted; definitely sounds like wishlist as per OP sbackup automated backup works if share is mounted.
possible fixes would be to modify the cron-job for scheduled backups to mount the smb share, or mount it at boot via cifs in /etc/fstab. wishlist item would be to add a feature to sbackup to check prior to backing up and mount the designated location if not already mounted. -- Automatic time-set sbackup on smb share is not working while manual backup is working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212015 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
