Checkmark "Run backups over metered networks" doesn't work
Opened this issue · 5 comments
Description
I encountered a bug.
By default, Vorta's preferences don't allow to make backups over metered networks. However, even if I check the checkmark "Run backups over metered networks", it doesn't affect anything and backups still couldn't be done.
Steps to reproduce:
- Check the checkmark "Run backups over metered networks".
- Click on "Start Backup".

There is no something special in logs, unfortunately. This is what happens in vorta.log when I hit Start Backup.

I have check the ~/.local/share/Vorta/settings.db and found the backupprofilemodel-> dont_run_on_metered_networks setting value.
This value was 1 and a manuel change to 0 fixed this issue for me.
