Backup to Dropbox fails
I am trying to backup to Dropbox path Virtualmin/%Y-%m-%d and I get an error of:
Starting backup of 117 domains to %Y-%m-%d in Dropbox folder Virtualmin ..
HTTP/1.1 409 Conflict
Backup failed! See the progress output above for the reason why.
I have tried it with : Virtualmin/%Y-%m-%d
The OS is Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS.
I test it with and without strftime style time substitutions on file or directory name
strftime style time substitutions work from the command line root@vhosts:~# date +%Y-%m-%d 2017-11-03

Status:
Active

Is your backup over-writing existing files? Also, did you select the single-file backup format, or one file per domain?

There are no files currently in this directory of Dropbox. In the screen grab destination.jpeg you can see I selected "One file per server" option.

Is the backup over-writing an existing folder in this case?

In Dropbox: The folder Virtualmin exists, but there are no date folders created.

Damn, I thought I fixed that issue. Are you creating a backup that would over-write existing files?

There are currently files in the folder. But "Delete old backups" is set to never. I am clearing the folder out to see if this has any bearing on the results.... nope.
