backup_log_dir_for_component_Dgraph2 failed in baseline update. Permission denied error coming in Dgraph log

Question

During baseline update, I am getting error as backup_log_dir_for_component_Dgraph2 failed.

1. Below is the error from baseline_update.out file

Answer 1

The problem is very clear in logs, such a folder doesn't exists and so baseline process is unable to rename the folder Dgraph2. This usually occurs when the process fails in-between when the baseline update is running. Say for example you ran the process and the script clears a folder after taking back up of that contents and it fails. Again you might run the process from the first so when it tries to clear the same again, you usually get the error of missing folder. Simple solution is that create the missing folder Dgraph2 or when the update fails due to workbench down or anything. Then comment the app config script till it had successfully ran and run again from that particular instance. Hope this helps!
