[SOLVED] Backup proccess issue

[darkglobe]

Hi

I need help to solve a backup issue with Release 5.0.20_GA_3127.UBUNTU8_64 UBUNTU8_64 NETWORK.

What is happening is that any zmbackup script runs with an error outputed on the mailbox.log file.

An example from this error is discript here, when I perform a test running the following command:
/opt/zimbra/bin/zmbackup -f -a account@domain.com

2010-01-06 12:36:18,340 INFO [FullBackupThread] [] backup - full backup took 3 millisec
2010-01-06 12:36:18,414 ERROR [FullBackupThread] [] backup - Error occurred during full backup
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.zimbra.cs.backup.FileBackupTarget$FileBackupSe t.stopWorkerThreads(FileBackupTarget.java:849)
at com.zimbra.cs.backup.FileBackupTarget$FileBackupSe t.endFullBackup(FileBackupTarget.java:969)
at com.zimbra.cs.backup.BackupManager.doBackupFull(Ba ckupManager.java:820)
at com.zimbra.cs.backup.BackupManager$FullBackupThrea d.run(BackupManager.java:224)

And the zmbackupquery command shows this:

Label: full-20100106.153618.317
Type: full
Status: in progress
Started: Wed, 2010/01/06 12:36:18.317 GMT-03:00
Number of accounts: 1
0 out of 1 accounts have been backed up

After that, nothing happen, and that status remains the same even if another backup proccess runs later.
All backup tasks remain locked on the server, appending on the zmbackupquery status output.

The zmbackupabort command is not enough to kill the proccess.

A tried remove the /opt/zimbra/backup/tmp/ files on this folder and restart the zimbra services, but the same issue happens.

I didn't find any documentation about this or similar issues.

Someone could help me with this problem?

Thanks for any response.

Well,

After spend many hours over this issue, we found what was causing this problem.

The fault of backup files .sql referenced in the /opt/zimbra/db directory.

As follow: backup-version-init.sql and backup_schema.sql
