Unable to Save Additional Project Snapshots

tcasw86 — Fri, 08 Nov 2019 17:56:45 GMT

I working through a migration project and attempted to save a snapshot, I received a message "Failed, Please delete some existing snapshots" I don't see anyway to delete snapshots. I have tried restarting expedition and am still receiving the error

Currently, snapshots need to be deleted manually via CLI.

The snapshots are located in /home/userSpace/projects/<projectName>/Backups

Check there the snapshots that you consider could be removed.

Sorry for reviving an old thread but I get permission denied when trying to access the project directory:

$ cd /home/userSpace/projects
-bash: cd: /home/userSpace/projects: Permission denied

$ pwd
/home/userSpace

Hello @justamoment

Make sure you are a sudoer and this should grant you access to the folder.

Sorry, I should've mentioned this:

$ sudo cd /home/userSpace/projects
[sudo] password for admin:
sudo: cd: command not found

Works for me, try going into "sudo su" then changing your path.

Ah, I forgot all about sudo su. That worked - thanks!
