It seems to be getting stuck here - not sure if this is enlightening at all ?


Creating directory 
/tt-archive/backuppc/pc/localhost/96/./f%2fshare%2fhome%2fcfd/finstallation_packages
Got path = 
./f%2fshare%2fhome%2fcfd/finstallation_packages/attrib_88b274e4b7832babbbe8f66bb4571c31,
 name = attrib_88b274e4b7832babbbe8f66bb4571c31, e,d,f = 1,0,1
Got path = ./f%2fshare%2fhome%2fcfd/attrib_3b5fcb164e6ca5bf3afa64b234c6e072, 
name = attrib_3b5fcb164e6ca5bf3afa64b234c6e072, e,d,f = 1,0,1
Got path = ./backupInfo, name = backupInfo, e,d,f = 1,0,1
Got path = ./rsyncTmp.9948.0.4, name = rsyncTmp.9948.0.4, e,d,f = 1,0,1

Is It safe to delete /tt-archive/backuppc/pc/localhost/96/ - and the other ones 
that have started to duplicate and hung ?

Cheers,

Peter G. McDonald

Not sure why this should happen.  It's just copying a tree of directories that 
contain one empty file, so that shouldn't be a problem.

I'd recommend manually running BackupPC_backupDuplicate as the BackupPC user 
with $Conf{XferLogLevel} set to 5.  First make sure a backup isn't running on 
localhost.  Then:

su backuppc_user
/usr/local/bin/BackupPC_backupDuplicate -h localhost

You should see one line of output for each file/directory it encounters.  That 
should allow you to see where it stalls or fails.

Hi,

Apologies if this is not the correct place for this.

We recently upgraded from v3 to v4 in order to try and get better performance, 
v3 worked fine. Since upgrading to v4 whenever a new scheduled backup starts
it sits at the 'copy' stage. For example :


Host   <http://localhost:8881/backuppc?action=status#>  Type   
<http://localhost:8881/backuppc?action=status#>  User   
<http://localhost:8881/backuppc?action=status#>  Start Time   
<http://localhost:8881/backuppc?action=status#>    Command   
<http://localhost:8881/backuppc?action=status#>       PID   
<http://localhost:8881/backuppc?action=status#>   Xfer PID   
<http://localhost:8881/backuppc?action=status#>      Status   
<http://localhost:8881/backuppc?action=status#>        Count   
<http://localhost:8881/backuppc?action=status#>
localhost<http://localhost:8881/backuppc?host=localhost>        backup  
backuppc<mailto:backuppc>       10/3 08:59      BackupPC_dump -i localhost      
12647   12650   copy #93 -> #95 1008 dirs

Any suggestions where to look ? I attempted to launch a backup manually from 
the command line with :-

/usr/bin/perl /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_dump -i localhost

Which worked, although seemed to overwrite my last previous backup. After that 
I was able to launch jobs manually via the CGI interface, but after a scheduled 
attempt everything gets stuck again.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks,
