Can't access snapshot folder (because of permission problems?) on headiess server

Hi, this is the first time I try to configure and run BIT (v1.5.2 from git repo) on a headless server. I get the errors like that in the debug output: DEBUG: [common/snapshots.py:851 backup] Cannot start snapshot yet: target directory not accessible. Waiting 1s. INFO: [common/snapshots.py:861 Snapshots.backup] Waited 29 seconds for target directory to be available WARNING: [common/snapshots.py:866 Snapshots.backup] Can't find snapshots folder! I am assuming that my BIT config is correct, but I am not sure. I am assuming that my permissions are not correct. But they do look OK for me and I can create files and folders in it. backup@OLAF:/mnt$ ls -ld /mnt/Nerys drwxrwxr-x 4 admin backup 4096 18. Aug 13:26 /mnt/Nerys backup@OLAF:/mnt$ ls -l /mnt/Nerys insgesamt 20 drwx------ 2 root root 16384 17. Aug 17:23 lost+found backup@OLAF:/mnt$ touch /mnt/Nerys/foo backup@OLAF:/mnt$ mkdir /mnt/Nerys/bar backup@OLAF:/mnt$ ls -l /mnt/Nerys insgesamt 20 drwxr-xr-x 2 backup backup 4096 18. Aug 13:26 bar -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 0 18. Aug 13:32 foo drwx------ 2 root root 16384 17. Aug 17:23 lost+found Any ideas? Best Christian

Someone with experiences in CircleCI, WoodpeckerCI or other CI

Hello, do we have someone who is experienced in CI systems like CircleCI or WoodpeckerCI? Microsoft GitHub Actions is not on option and out of discussion. Our TravisCI is working but not reliable. This weekend I merged several PRs but TravisCI didn't work because the jobs are "queued" for ever and never started. This is just one of the problems I often have. I know that CircleCI is a commercial product but they offer FreePlans for FOSS projects. WoodpeckerCI is offered by codeberg.org and totally free for us. We can stick to TravisCI. But if we have someone with experience in another CI I would like to test it. We just need someone translating our travis config into the other CI system. Best, Christian
