failed rsnapshot of mapped network directory when scheduled
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
I have a problem when running rsnapshot for backing up a network mapped drive directory to my local client via cron (and only via a scheduled job).
If I run rsnapshot in a CYGWIN terminal manually I get not errors, while when running via a cron job I get this weird error log:
[2019-03-06T13:30:07] /usr/bin/rsnapshot -c /etc/defaults/etc/rsnapshot.conf alpha: ERROR: ---------------------------------------------------------------------

"/cygdrive/N/<source_here>/"
doesn't exist
I double checked the source directory address, which is: /cygdrive/N/.../, even with the command
rsnapshot /etc/defaults/etc/rsnapshot.conf configtest
which ended with a Syntax OK statement.
Again, no issues when running manually, problems when running as a scheduled job.
Any idea? Thank you.
