HS4 Release Announcements 4.2.18.0 is available!

[Bigstevep]

If your local backup is not working, can you post your backup time?

Not sure exactly what you are asking but I just set my automatic backup for Monday at 8:15AM and no backup. I did a manually at 8:10AM no problem.

Not sure what I'm looking for. I did a manual backup and I see this.




I assume the HomeSeerData.json directory is my manual backup.
But I do automatic backups at 2:30am on Mon, Wed, Fri, Sun with KAM 2. Shouldn't I see more backups?

HS4 shows the backup was created successfully this morning at 2:30am.

I believe I found the issue with the backup, if you are seeing the issue, can you update to this build and post back if its ok now:

Windows Build:
http://homeseer.com/updates4/SetupHS4_4_2_18_2.msi

Local backups are stored in your HS folder "\html\backups"

I am still not able to edit the backup settings with version 4.2.18.2 (Linux)
As soon as I enable Setup/Network/MyHS then this is working again. We had the bug in an earlier version too (HSCS-14354).

I put in a fix for this.

Thank you 👍

OK 4.2.18.2 works on automatic backup now. BTY I had to use a different browser to get the msi file down. Google didn't work.

I do weekly backups on Sundays, 3:00 a.m. The last backup showing in "C:\Program Files (x86)\HomeSeer HS4\html\backups" is from January 29th.

Coincidence or not, I set the maximum at 5 and there are only 5 backups recorded.

Also note that the attached snip of my backup page shows "Last backup: 2023-02-26 22:33:04". This coincides with me starting HS4, but no manual local backup was taken.

EDIT - Sorry, I missed the prior post from rjh. Installed 4.2.18.2 and local backups now work.

Will you make available 4.2.18.2 beta for Linux also? I don't get this beta when I go to "Setup" and press "Check update"

FWIW-

Edge fails to complete the download from http://homeseer.com/updates4/SetupHS4_4_2_18_2.msi
Firefox does successfully download the file.

[Bigstevep]

I had to use Firefox as well.
