Unknown internal error doing a GET to /api/config-backup?page=1&format=json&page_size=32000&count=

Hi there,

after the last upgrade to Rockstor 5.1.0-0 I get the above error after browsing the System->Config Backups web page.
After further investigating I found the directory /opt/rockstor/static/config-backups/ to be non existant.
As a quick fix I created that directory but the error didn’t go away.
Is the backup-directory to be expected somewhere else?
Many greetings,

Frank

Waited, reloaded several times, cleared the browser cache - and now it’s working.
Manually creating that directory did indeed fix the problem.
Backups are gone of course, but that’s not a problem.
Some background information:
I did upgrade via ssh and zypper update, so maybe it was all my fault, because I didn’t use the gui.
Another side note:
I started my nas career with diy hardware but switched to synology for various reasons. This worked well until I got really annoyed by their hdd size limitations and their (latest) other restrictions.
I think rockstor through the power of btrfs is underrated und undermentioned.
Thank you very much!
Frank
