Usually this means the files were in use somehow - might be related to a specific addon. Debug log would help.

Made a backup on SPMC, with v1.09 and then restore it on latest Kodi 17 RC3 with v1.09.
Not everything got well.
Add-ons were all disabled. Anyone knows why?
My movie library was not set. Series library was set.
The rest I think was fine, specially the addons config backup.

and can you overlook the library problem?!

On Kodi 17 the addons are not enabled by default after the restore. It's on the "todo" list.

I tried a restore from my 16.1 backup, but allmost all informations are missing now. It doesnt have any information any more, if a folder in the mediasources contains movies or tv-shows and is isnt flagged anymore if the move/tv-show has been watched or not.

Is there a way to get these information working again or do i really have to flag every single item all over again? (Got my Android box only 21 days ago and took my nearly 10 days :-( )

But then i tried it and unfortunately it still backups Thumbnail folders that are in other profiles even with the setting disabled

(2017-02-04, 14:51)DeJuan N. Onley Wrote: It bears repeating because it hasn't been mentioned in a while, but this addon will not back up your database if you are using MySQL/MariaDB. It really should be mentioned in the description somewhere since no errors will appear, but none of your library information will be backed up or restored. Of course, if you are using one of these methods, you should be backing up your database separately anyway (thankfully I was so it wasn't a big deal). Perhaps a dialog box to remind MySQL users of this limitation when doing backups? Or gray out the database option altogether for such users?

Edit: Now that I think about it, you wouldn't want to disable the option. Since most MySQL users are only using it for storing MyVideos and MyMusic databases, this will still backup the others such as Textures. But a dialog box reminding them to backup MySQL separately might be useful. Here I was scratching my head as to why my libraries were empty when I realized the database backup option was only backing up the SQLite databases and not doing a MySQL dump. Since I had separate MariaDB backups, this wasn't a problem, but I can just imagine someone else screaming that they lost all their libraries. It really needs to be made more clear to the users IMHO.

Posted a debug log here: http://pastebin.com/QWcKvCpC

From the log, it looks like the script is attempting to create the root of my hard drive; "E:\"...

Trying to find the authorize URLs for getting these to work is always a big pain, and in some cases almost impossible. To ease the user experience I've implemented a way to encode these urls using the TinyURL service. Now they are displayed in a dialog box right within Kodi that you can easily type into a browser and complete the process. I've also moved the authorization process to the Settings page of the addon so you can perform it, and know it's working, before attempting to run a backup. This seemed like a more natural place for this process to happen.

Before pushing this to the repo I'm curious if it is actually working for anyone other than myself. If anyone has time to pull version 1.1.0 from the repo and test the authorization process I'd appreciate it.Thanks!
