Hello @PittP ,
Welcome to the forum!
Since the internet connection is not reliable, perhaps would be better to configure Duplicati via Gateway MT.
- Generate GatewayMT creds
- In Duplicati create a new backup job
- The connection type would be S3 compatible
- Select Use SSL checkbox
- Server should be Custom server url ()
- Place gateway endpoint without
https://to the Custom S3 endpoint field - Specify a bucket in the Bucket field
- Bucket create region, Storage class leave by default
- Place your GatewayMT Access Key in the AWS Access ID field
- Place your GatewayMT Secret Key in the AWS Access Key field
- Check connection with Test Connection
Regarding databases - it’s a weak point of Duplicati. If it were lost or corrupted, the backup become almost useless (depending on what database is missed/corrupted during upload).
You could try to recover a database:
Then use one of three buttons
Sometimes it could repair a database, but it also could be recreated as a last resort.
