Comet Backup 1.5.2

2026 May 28

Bug fixes

• CPANEL-53213: Fix restorable accounts disappearing from the multi-account restore interface when the backup job that created them is deleted.
• CPANEL-53355: Fix backups hanging when the Comet Backup Server is slow to respond by bounding the create_backup_job call to its configured timeout.
• CPANEL-53423: Guard orphaned-job cancellation against connectivity failures; fix backups hanging due to a problematic running_only query argument.
• CPANEL-53585: Fix restore failures on Ubuntu caused by a shared socket after forking.

Improvements

• CPANEL-53247: Narrow Comet API queries using GUID/SourceGUID/HasFinished filters and prevent concurrent backup runner instances.
• CPANEL-53495: Improve the onboarding experience when no backups are present; open the backup wizard directly from the onboarding call to action.
