CDP.me - Open Source Linux Server Backups

hiphiphip0

Daily backups at 3am: * 3 * * * php /var/www/cron.php

638866194e7e0d4d4ad842326d3e28e9 >/dev/null 2>&1

It's backup per every minute of 3am.

Luckily I correct it and killed cron in 3:10, otherwise I would get 60 email and the disk may bomb.

It's wired there is a cdpme****.tar.gz file on /root, maybe because I killed cron and interrupted file move process.

Sorry! This has been fixed. Please re-upgrade.

Would love an option to use GPG to encrypt the backups - Should not be that hard to add (can i donate somewhere for such a function?)

Sure, adding this to my to-do list. Please PM me for donations.

Very nice, will give it a try.

Thank you, fixed.

Could you also add a variable for setting TMP path (or ignore your own file) ? I for once like to backup /root as well...

The script compresses the directory(s) before saving/moving the file.

There seems to be a bug that one cannot add more than 5 servers on one of my installs, any idea? Can give you ssh for debug if desired.

Nice pace development @PetaByet, will give it a whirl.

Nice tool, but didn't realise it takes over the server web config. I tried it on a test server with a throwaway owncloud installation, which it blew away as it reinstalls apache, mysql, etc. Also had to restart apache before it listened to my config.php credential edits - not sure why - caching?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are the .json files publicly accessible? Seems like if someone knows you have a CDP.me install they can get some information you may want to keep semi-private?

The auto installer removes everything in the document root by default, but you can use the manual install instructions if you have something else there.

Have you logged out before logging in again?

There is a .htaccess file in the document root to prevent .json (db) and .tar.gz (backup) files from being accessed from the public. You may have to enable allowoverride in apache config though.

Great job

I changed credentials in the config.php before I logged in for the first time (generated my own md5 from plaintext password). When login failed, I tried the default credentials and they worked. New credentials only "took" after I restarted apache.

It might be an idea to warn about this at the start of the install. Was no biggie for me, but you might get abuse for it from others :-)

Just started playing with this, I like its simplicity, 1 thing that does not seem to have been covered and perhaps I am being an idiot but.... I assume the default is diff not full?

How to enable https access?
How to change password ?

The script does full backups of the directory(s) you choose.

Edit the config.php with your md5-hashed password.

every time?

Indeed.

Diff backups would be nice.
It would require pretty much backup space to have a long retention time.

I see, well that seems a little, excessive not really a real CDP more of a B

I wont be able to use it I guess, moving 3TB every night for the sake of 100mb worth of new data is spartan madness.

I agree with @AnthonySmith. Would be a complete pain.

host4all

does it work with php 5.5 for any one ?

PetaByet

@AnthonySmith @tragic 3...2...1... here we go

It should, I have not tested it on 5.5 though.

MySQL backups and encrypted backups should be coming very soon

Frig yeah! You're quick.

tragic

@PetaByet Awesome, thanks.

Remuz

Jesus, this is moving fast. Once we get MySQL support, I'm giving it a whirl as well.

Any chance for XtraBackup support as well?

MarkTurner

@PetaByet - Just installed it, some thoughts:

1. Restart httpd/apache at the end of the install. If its already installed and php is not then php module is not loaded so index.php appears as raw text

2. Fix homepage file not found:

`--- home.php.OLD 2014-11-07 11:43:48.100929184 -0500
+++ home.php 2014-11-07 11:46:03.927770315 -0500

I will roll the fixes into a diff on GIthub if it helps.
