ISO Backup fails in 227 CU 183 Testing

Backup, with “Generate ISO” checked is not working correctly.
My first attempt produced a correctly labeled zero byte ISO file.
Subsequent attempts, again selecting the "Generate ISO option, produce a correctly named and sized .ipf file.

I last successfully created an ISO file in Core182 stable.

It does not work with the testing versions. Once the CU becomes stable it should work as expected.

There is a post about this somewhere in the community but I have not found it.

Ah, I suspected this might be the case. Then to avoid confusion, attempts to create an ISO file should just be ignored.

For information.

The ISO backup has a first step of downloading the iso for the version that you have installed.

It looks to get this from the download site but that site only has the iso’s for the Stable Releases so currently the latest version is 182 but your Testing release will be 183 so it will fail to get the iso which will end up with 0 bytes.

Hence the ISO backup can not be tested in the Testing Release.

it can be done its just knowing what to tweak to do it, truly not recommended on a production system though.
