Hi,

When trying to restore a backup from WHM, I get this error (for all domains):

&mount: can't find /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
mount: can't find /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
Extracting tarball....tar (child): username.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
/bin/tar: Child returned status 2
/bin/tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Done
Extracting Domain....Done
Sorry, the copy failed. Unable to find the cpanel user file
Account Restore Failed...
&

Can someone help me to identify the problem?
Regards

Do you have a separate Backup Drive on your server? (/BACKUP)
also it should be setup in WHM -& backup -& configure backup

Yes, I have a separate backup drive for /backup and setup in WHM. The backup files are present in /backup, but WHM is unable to locate them when restoring.

check up your /etc/fstab and make sure it has been configured correctly and containing your /backup mount point

it should something looks like this:

/dev/hda1 /backup ext3 defaults 1 2

My fstab file looks like this:

LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 2
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
LABEL=/tmp /tmp ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/usr /usr ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 2
LABEL=/var /var ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 2
/dev/hdb5 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/hdd1 /home3 ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 2
/dev/hdd2 /backup ext3 defaults 1 2

But problem persists..
