I thing that you dont have the command ldapsearch, or it is not in you
PATH.
If you have installed ldap-tools, check your PATH variable in the
definition of the cron ( Look for the /etc/crontab file to use for example
).
And try the rewrite_proposal_v2.0 branch version. It is more configurable
and complete version.

[Arek]

my path looks like this:

SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

what i must add to this lines?

and could You send me more details about "rewrite_proposal_v2.0 branch version" ?

i alredy check links from this post: #21

and all links are have error 404...

OK, i just found it: https://github.com/bggo/Zmbkpose/tree/rewrite_proposal_v2.0

tomorrow i will check this version and i will let You know.

Thx

It is the standart PATH, and I think that is correct. According to the
error :
The /usr/local/bin/zmbkpose: line 161: -x: command not found
I thnk that you are in 8dae517 tree version of "master" branch, and If
you look the line 161, you can see the follow:
$(which ldapsearch) -x -H $LDAPMASTERSERVER -D $LDAPZIMBRADN -w
$LDAPZIMBRAPASS -b '' -LLL "(objectclass=zimbraAccount)"
zimbraMailDeliveryAddress zimbraMailHost | grep ^zimbraMail | awk '{print
$2}' > "$LISTALLACCOUNTS"
And if "which" not locate ldapsearch command, then bash execute a
-x -H $LDAPMASTERSERVER ......
and it is your error.
I suspect you are writing the cron line in a file created in /etc/cron.d
directory, because there, are not valid the statements of /etc/crontab, and
you should add a PATH declaration in it similar to /etc/crontab .

and could You send me more details about "rewrite_proposal_v2.0 branch
version" ?

in proyect site : http://github.com/bggo/Zmbkpose there is a selection
list says: [ brach:master ] , choose "rewrite_proposal_v2.0", and download
the zip version.

I suspect that webmin is the problem here. It is a high level interface to
define cron jobs, but in these case, you need go to low.
You should to find the created cron job file by webmin :

egrep zmbkpose -r /etc/cron*

Edit this file with your favorite editor, and add in the firsts lines
(before the command zmbkpose) the follow :
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

1)you have installed ldap-tools ? What if you execute :
$ ldapadd

2)If you have ldapadd command, then is a PATH problem in cron files. When
cron executes jobs, the default PATH is "/usr/bin:/bin" accord the man page
(man 5 crontab). You have installed ldaptools binaries an another dir. Show
me the result of
$ which ldapadd

You are free to choose, but I suggest use zimbra user. From a security
aspect, it is best to use as little as possible root user.
But remember to give the zimbra user, permissions to write on the directory
backups (WORKDIR in /etc/zmbkpose.conf) .
Please keep me informed of your suggestions or problems so I can fix them.

Do You have some instruction to restore email's from backup?

No. I will should write it . You can use -r or -R . There is a minimal
explication when you execute zmbkpose without arguments.

[Arek]

If i want restore example from full backup acount [e-mail] i need use zmbkpose -R [e-mail] ? or something else?

Suppose that you have the follows FULL/INCREMENTAL account backups :
Monday : Backup FULL
Tuesday : Backup INC
Wednesday: Backup FULL
Thursday : Backup INC
Friday : Backup INC

If you restore using
$ zmbkpose -r -a [e-mail]
then you are restauring from last full backup, and subsequent incrementals:
backups from wednesday, thursday and friday.

If It's saturday and restore using
$ zmbkpose -R 2d -a [e-mail]
then you are restauring from last full backup, and subsequent incrementals
upto reach now - 2 days (saturday - 2 day) : backups from wednesday and
thursday

If It's saturday and restore using
$ zmbkpose -R 4d -a [e-mail]
then you are restauring from last full backup(previous to now - 4 days),
and subsequent incrementals upto reach now - 4 days (saturday - 4 day) :
backups from monday and tuesday

I have installed Zmbkpose-rewrite_proposal_v2.0. Everything working fine except one thing and it is
zmbkpose -backupdistributionlist command not working for backup all distribution list. So can you help me how to take backup of all distribution list. Already I have tried with following command
zmbkpose -backupdistributionlist, zmbkpose --backupdistributionlist, zmbkpose -f -backupdistributionlist, zmbkpose -f --backupdistributionlist.
