Due to permission denied error the backup stopped and couldn’t be restarted again. The log file /var/log/pgbackrest/bahmni-postgres-backup.log shows
2018-02-10 02:29:17.017 P00 ERROR: [132]: ERROR: a backup is already in progress HINT: Run pg_stop_backup() and try again.:
pgbackrest documentation shows the exact same problem with an option of --stop-auto.
Entered this option first in /etc/pgbackrest.conf only to realize that this file is getting overwritten so modified /opt/bahmni-installer/bahmni-playbooks/roles/pgbackrest-backup/templates/pgbackrest.conf.j2 but still the same error as the log file shows stop-auto option is only available in PostgreSQL >= 9.3
Running pg_stop_backup() within postgresql didn’'t help either as it shows “a backup is not in progress”.
Any ideas to restart the backup while seeking help from the pgbackrest forum?
