CPANEL-42530 - SSH Backup Error

    Hey there! Can you try just running the first part of the script: for i in $(ls /var/cpanel/users);
    If the error is with the cPanel user list, running that by itself on the command line should give you more details, or at least allow you to reproduce the problem.

    Hello guys. In case this comment add some light to the cPanel staff, I found this thread by searching one of the strings: Possible ambiguous use of trailing variable in output,url:.... I found this error happens with a lot of variables when transfering accounts between cPanel servers, being both running cPanel 106.0.11. It happens almost always, no matter if you are migrating to/from Almalinux 8 or CentOS 7.

    We're also seeing this error/message when transferring accounts between servers.

    Is there any way one of you could submit a ticket so we can see that transfer error in real-time?

    Hello @cPRex, I have to transfer a couple accounts today, so I'll try to collect the lines, as they don't appear in the logs of "Review transfers". They just appear in the first screen of the transfer.

    Hi, i have the same issue, this start to happen like a month ago ( I have made 3 full server transfer, and almost 10 backups from different servers, all with the same issue), all the transfers and backups generation shows the same warning. Anyway, the backup and transfer finish well, but with transfer tool, migrating 500 accounts It's very disgusting, this become a eternal scroll down. Error : The number of arguments to quant (6 in [quant,_1,bit,bits,bits,bits,bits,bits]) is incorrect (should be 2 for es). Possible ambiguous use of trailing variable in output,url: [output,url,_1,documentation,target,_2,id,_3] Like a hundred of messages like that for each backup or transfered account, may be something with translation because here shows (should be 2 for es), and the original post shows (should be 1 for tr) Will be nice that the solution was published here, and not only with a ticket, because i think that this is a general problem that comes with some cpanel update. Thank you very much

    We have determined these errors are related to the locale removal and readdition that happened in versions 106 and 108. These errors can be safely ignored. We do have an internal case open to resolve this, but it hasn't been added to version 106 yet.

    We just started moving from CloudLinux 7 to CloudLinux 8 and we too have these warnings throughout the transfer. Both servers are 108.0.14

    Thanks for confirming, @chrisbuk. Just for my own tracking, the case number is CPANEL-42530, although I don't have any updates to provide at this time.

    thanks for the info

    this remains. when performing a mass transfer, the transfer log is huge with these.

    @JoseDieguez - I've let the team know that you're still seeing this behavior, but I'm not seeing any updates on my end at this point.

    Update - I'm actually seeing this is fixed in version 110. Are you on an older version @JoseDieguez ?

    I have the same problem. There is a migration being performed with the "Transfer Tools" and it is sending multiple alerts like this. cPanel Version 110.0.0.6 CentOS 7 to Almalinux 8 ( CloudLinux v8)

    Hi, no, all of our servers are 110.x

    That's interesting - could you create a ticket with our team so we can investigate that? I can't reproduce on my end on a 110 or 112 machine.

    Created, support reply: At this time, CPANEL-42530 is still open for review and is not yet fixed. Our development team is still working to apply a fix to the case, and I've linked your ticket to this case as an example for their reference.

    N"o h" problema em alternar entre vers"es t"o pr"ximas. S" n"o queremos que as pessoas mudem de vers"es muito antigas para um sistema moderno e esperem sucesso. ====================================================================================================================== It's fine to move between versions that are so close together. We just don't want people moving from very old versions to a modern system and expecting success.

    "The issue here is not that, but the warning listing for a high-demand of accounts. Let's go, if you migrate one account, it already generates 361 lines. Imagine if we copy 10 to 100 accounts, the browser will freeze."

    I don't have any updates on that case to share at this point, but I do see it is still open and our team is working on it.

    Just to comment, problem persists, we migrated a few hundred's accounts, and the web browser was failing during the migration. (this didn't cause problems to the migration itself, just to the web browser and the log check later).

    @JoseDieguez - could you tell me what languages/locales you have on that server so I can provide the developers with more info?

    Same problem here, migrating a server from Centos 7.9 with cPanel 110 to Almalinux 8 with 116.

    I have tried changing locale for cpanel in origin (was in Spanish), puting English as well as destination server, still the same.. i did not try to put all the accounts in english. 

    Seems not fixed to me.

    Rackmarkt - I don't see that the original case has been fixed, so I'm not surprised you're still seeing this.

    + lots of lines like that.

    I previously transferred to 118.0.4 from 110.0.24 - I saw those error in the transfer tool first then in the nighly backup.

    Some admin interfaces might have been set to french locale.
