Re: Dozens of emails from cron "sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified" + admin u/p "invalid"

Re: Dozens of emails from cron "sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified" + admin u/p "invalid"

I have since reset the admin password but this has made no difference.

Still getting the emails from cron and still can't log in.

I also restarted the vestacp service.

Re: Limiting number of remote backups

So I did some more digging today and (hopefully) I have come up with a solution to my issue. First I found that for most of my script root privileges aren't required, so I just removed the "sudo" from the start of the cron job and the script mostly worked. However, for one section, which i...

Re: Limiting number of remote backups

Re: Cloning website, making staging copy (v-clone-website)

Brilliant. You're awesome! Thanks! :D

I love this script. It is so quick. :!:

I noted, however, that when it displayed the summary of the information to be used to complete the clone, the DATABASE_SUF...
