Cobian Reflector 0.9.42 BETA
Folder contains 2 files. First one ~30 GB, second one ~10 GB. Its content and names changes every day. Created task must backup folder to ftps server every night. When I run task manually both files are uploaded without problems. Scheduled task uploads first file, but on the second file gives an error:
An error occurred while uploading the file "E:\Backups\202111112300.bak" to "/Backups": Input string was not in a correct format.
If I select in ftp server advanced tab "strick return codes" the situation the same but the the error becomes:
An error occurred while uploading the file "E:\Backups\202111092300.bak" to "/Backups": NOOP ok. (code=200)
Why this could happen and it is possible to solve this problem?
Strange backup problem
Re: Strange backup problem
Very strange. Manual backup is just forcing the scheduler to just add the task to the queue.
What kind of server are you using?

Re: Strange backup problem
Cobian runs on Windows 2016 server, ftp server - vsftpd 3.0.3 on Ubuntu.
Re: Strange backup problem
I explored the problem more deeply. Luis seems to have been right. There is no difference between manual and scheduled backups. When I tried to upload 2 big files manually I observed the same problem as with scheduled backup - first file uploads successfully, second one fails. If I upload small files they all uploads successfully. I attached the pieces from vsftpd.log file which maybe could help to identify problem.
Re: Strange backup problem
Is this the ftp server that come with ubuntu? Need to check this out.

Ubuntu 20.04. If you need I can send content of vsftpd.conf.
Re: Strange backup problem
Sure! It will help. BTW what is the size of the file that fails?
