For a few months I’ve been getting error messages in the System logs as follows when creating a manual backup or when the Supervisor creates a core backup automatically when installing a new version.

The backup seems to complete OK from the front-end, no errors are displayed, it’s only when I go into the logs that I see the errors.
Core-only backups show a size of 0.1MB. Does that sound right or does it look like the backups did indeed fail? I don’t want to test it by restoring for obvious reasons. Is anyone else seeing these error messages and what should be a reasonable size for a core-only backup?
I logged a Github issue a couple of months ago, but no-one responded and a bot eventually marked it as Stale and then closed it.

Thank you for replying. I have opened another github issue, could you possibly add a comment for yourself, and hopefully it will get looked at this time!
