Describe your issue

Upgrade error from 0.96.24~ynh2 to 0.96.24~ynh3. The update doesn’t finish, it always indicates that an update is needed. It’s probably because the backup is being performed. It’s trying to make a full backup of the books folder.
Is this happening to anyone else, or is it just me?
INFO - Creating a backup archive from the collected files…
INFO - The archive will contain about 378.8GB of data.
Would it be possible to make the backup on an external drive?

Hola Josep,

The upgrade cannot be completed because the backup cannot be created: you need to free up some space.

Thanks for your prompt response. I’ll try it (I don’t know much about Linux). I think it would be interesting if Yunohost had an option to define where backups are made.
