Borg backup not working
Tried to set up borg backup. Installation went fine, no errors there. Also self-check goes through without errors. The problem arises when I try to execute the backup manually on the server with 'sudo systemctl start matrix-backup-borg'. The following is from 'journalctl -xeu matrix-backup-borg.service' I am using ubuntu server running in virtualbox as my backup server my matrix server is running in another one of those too.

I have these in my vars.yml regarding borg
backup_borg_enabled: true backup_borg_location_repositories:
- ssh://myredacteduser@myredactedip/./backup_synapse backup_borg_storage_encryption_passphrase: "myredactedpassphrase" backup_borg_ssh_key_private: | -----BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY----- myredactedsshprivatekeyintendedwith2spaces -----END OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY----- ssh -p myredactednonstandardsshport -o "StrictHostKeyChecking accept-new" -i /etc/borgmatic.d/sshkey
Can't figure out what is the problem. No errors in installation or self-check and everything seems to be correctly configured.
UPDATE: Problem is apparently related to my backup server as I managed to setup working borg backup to BorgBase. Still no idea what the problem is tho
Does the repo exist and has it been initialized?
I my suggestion for troubleshooting would be to try and run a borgmatic info from the container. to see if it exists yet.

No the repo doesn't exist yet, because it runs into an error before it can make it.
I ran 'borgmatic info' on the server and it sure doesn't exist. Which is weird, because running the playbook didn't raise any errors.
