A few questions about Virtualmin restore

SYSTEM INFORMATION
OS type and version Ubuntu 22.04
Webmin version 2.105
Virtualmin version 7.9.0

I’m trying the backup and restore features of Virtualmin.

Seems to work OK so far but I experience two issues:

  • When restoring a sub-server sharing a SSL certificate with the parent server/domain:

    Applying Nginx configuration ..
    .. configuration is invalid : nginx: [emerg] cannot load certificate 
    "/etc/ssl/virtualmin/1706282534110415/ssl.combined": BIO_new_file() failed (SSL: 
    error:80000002:system library::No such file or directory:calling 
    fopen(/etc/ssl/virtualmin/1706282534110415/ssl.combined, r) error:10000080:BIO 
    routines::no such file) nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
    

    It doesn’t happen otherwise, which will make me use a separate certificate in order to prevent this. Is that a bug?

  • The Additional Nginx directives for new virtual hosts setting don’t seem to be kept in the Virtualmin configuration backup, or at least it’s not restored.
    This setting is found in in System settings → Features and plugins → Nginx website → Configure
    Is that a missing feature? Are there other missing things one should be aware of when restoring a server?
