[rancid] MikroTik missed cmd(s): system package print detail without-paging

[IT-Info]

Hi Tim,

When I test it manually, I always test using the rancid user, which is what cron also runs as.

No, they're not running full tables.

Yes, a /system package print detail without-paging completes successfully and quickly via ssh.

Yes, the /system identity is composed of alphanumeric characters, as well as periods and dashes.

Again, it seems that the only MikroTiks that have issues are those that have been replaced.  I can pretty much guarantee that if a MikroTik router fails and gets replaced, it will no longer get backed up automatically in RANCID due to the error.  This has not been the case for Juniper or Cisco devices, those seem to work fine when they're replaced.

Thank you,
Brian

Are you running from cron as the same user as run by hand?

Are these boxes running full tables? How long does an /export take if you run it by hand?

Does a /system package print detail without-paging complete successfully if you run it via ssh?

Is your /system identity dns style or does it have other characters/symbols?
