BAckup Export in Confluece not works. Timeout BAd Gateway

[Ralf Thmas]

Hello,

if  i want Backup. i get always an Timeout

Hi @Ralf Thmas 

If you repeatedly experience timeout errors, try creating the export directly from the server. This will speed up the process and prevent timeouts.

 For example, use this URL:  http://localhost:8090/confluence/admin/backup.action . directly from your server.

Also refer this thread for a helpful answer.

[Kishan Sharma]

Do you see any errors in application logs ?

i upgraded to 7.13 than Backup works !

[Kishan Sharma]

Great, that's quite strange though, but glad that you were able to resolve it by upgrading confluence.

@Kishan Sharma How can I trigger this url  in a Linux VM where no GUI is present.

Hi @Jobin Jose 

There is already a suggestion raised with Atlassian - Add REST API endpoint for generating space exports 

Although deprecated, you may still use the RPC-API to export the entire Space, you will find some examples/workarounds on the suggestion.

@Kishan Sharma Thanks for your response. Looks like when you export a space, the .zip file is placed at Confluence the \local-home\temp\ folder. We can copy the backup from the node directly.
