Troubleshooting Automated Backups that Complete with Warning

Troubleshooting Automated Backups that Complete with Warning

My weekly automated backup status e-mail shows three courses with a Warning state. I have checked the Backup Report page and it shows "Skipped" status for all 122 of the courses. How can I determine which courses are the ones showing up as Warning on my weekly e-mail?

Thank you in advance.

Version of Moodle?  Hosted on?

Site Admin -> Reports -> Backups

But not sure you'll see much detail there.

Might have to explore moodledata/temp/backup directory and look for any .log files by contenthashed names (bunch of letters/numbers) over 0 bytes in size.   They are text and can be opened with any text editor - not to edit but to view contents.   Can't tell you what you'll find there, but there might be some clues for usage in troubleshooting (if required).
