Tested once again in a virtual machine simulating a sunday 1:00... Everything went OK.

Looking at the log file I see a lot of irregularities. For example:

2022-01-16 01:00:00 Ignoring the task Documents Françoise because it's disabled. ← ********** old task, same name
2022-01-16 01:00:00 Ignoring the task Documents Académie because it's disabled. ← ********** old task, same name

2022-01-16 00:59:12 A backup has started...

I don't see why the backup starts 1 minute before (but logged after) 1:00...

It's nothing I can reproduce here.

Documents Françoise : 105.000 files
Documents Académie : 16.000 files

What surprises me the most is the fact that the two backups take place together twice a week but it is only on Sundays that the problem occurs.

I have a feeling that the problem lies in the big number of files that must be count and calculated. I wonder if the problem is also present if you disable the Engine-Calculate progress exactly. You won't see the progress in an exact way (or at all) but it could be interesting to see if the problem persists anyway. Could you disable this for the next sunday?

Hi Luis,

Upgraded to 0.9.94RC1 and disabled Engine-Calculate progress exactly.
Let's wait and see.

And I agree with you about Lewis Hamilton :-) !

Still the same thing :
  • first task is run twice (with no file backed up during the second run) and second is run only once
  • but only on sunday and not on wednesday.
