Group: Member Post Group: Newbie Posts: 2 Status:	Hi, Thank you for your quick reply and looking into this. Yes, I have a VPS server with over 80 individual cPanel accounts on them. I paid extra to have Softaculous installed on the VPS server. Here is what I have done and set up incase it helps in your tests. Out of the 80+ cPanel accounts I have logged into each of about 70 of them and set up a remote backup location for each one to my Google drive per the Softaculous instructions. When I set up each remote location I made sure I set them up with their own unique directory. Example: cPanelAccount1 was set up with a directory /cPanelAccount1, and cPanelAccount2 was set up with a directory labeled /cPanelAccount2 and so on...... When I inspect my Google Drive account I can see a folder structure that was added due to my set up mentioned above as follows There is a main directory labeled "Softaculous Auto Installer" and then each unique directory I set up for each cPanel account is within that main directory. And in each unique directory are the backups as expected. And so the folder structure kind of looks like this example: -> Softaculous Auto Installer -> -> cPanelAccount1 -> -> cPanelAccount2 -> -> cPanelAccount3 -> -> cPanelAccount4 With each of the 70 or so individual cPanel accounts the process per your documentation was completely succesful and I set all of them up in the same day throughout the day. When setting up each remote directory for each cPanel account, I would also make it the default backup location, I would then immediately initiate a manual backup to the remote location which ran successfully for all 70 cPanel accounts I set up. After initiating a manual backup to the remote location and verifying it worked, I then configured auto backups tp the remote location for each of the 70 accounts (most were set to a weekly backup with a rotation of 3 backups). Shortly after configuring Softaculous with up auto backups, all the 70 accounts ran an initial auto backup successfully. So at this point each when I inspect my Google Drive, I can now see two backups in each unique directory, the manual backup I initiated and an initial auto backup. So I figured that it was a Mission Accomplished situation! Then about a week later when the auto backup I configured for each of the 70 cPanel accounts was triggered, I then started getting emails and notifications with the error mentioned above. I then logged into a few random accounts and tried to initiate a manual backup or try to modify the remote location settings and get the 401 credentials message for ALL 70 accounts as shown in the attached screenshot in my initial post thread above. Oddly, if I remove/delete the initial remote location I set up and add it back again it works. just as when I did it a week ago. But I suspect it will repeat the issue again. It could perhaps be an issue with multiple cpanel accounts on the single VPS server. But I can't imagine I am the only one doing this. And a VPS server is still a shared server environment. As I also mentioned my guess is it is a combination of what you suggest but I also feel it has to do with the authorization process. As I also set up backups at the cPanel/WHM level and for that I had to create unique Google API credentials per the instructions here: documentation.cpanel.net/display/CKB/How+to+Configure+Google+Drive+as+a+Backup+Additional+Destination Again, thank you very much for your help and your time. I look forward to your response and if you need anything else from me please let me know.
