Hi, I have a backup configured for Wasabi. The problem is that I run it and when I log out of my server, the backup stops working. If I log back in and run Duplicati, the backup starts again. I had seen that Duplicati had to be installed as a service, with this command: Duplicati.Server.exe install, but it never worked. I searched the internet and found this command: .\Duplicati.WindowsService.exe install --webservice-interface=loopback --webservice-port=8200 --portable-mode. I do see the service, which is normally stopped. I run it manually, but even so, as soon as I log out, it stops working. It’s a backup that’s over 300GB. So, since it starts from scratch, it never finished making the backup. I hope someone can help me. It’s installed on W Server 2019.
Thanks.
Welcome to the forum @Enrique
How exactly do you run Duplicati? You need to tell it not to run its own server.
Combining Server and TrayIcon sort of describes --no-hosted-server plan.
There’s unfortunately a bug in the Open menu, but there’s also a workaround.
TrayIcon is not essential, but the GUI password is. How to set it is covered at:
Example change with a different context
except since you used --portable-mode, the database is probably instead in
C:\Program Files\Duplicati 2\data
Browse to http://localhost:8200 try the password, and see if that stays up.
If you just launch Duplicati, it’s talking to itself as server, and ends at log out.
