Package: backuppc Version: 3.1.0-4 Severity: normal Hello,
i have configured archive host on backuppc to make archives over NFS to other machine. I want them to run regularly so I put this into my crontab: 55 12 * * 6 backuppc /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_archiveStart archive \ backuppc server1 server2 server3 It worked but archives are not compressed. I have configured archive compression: $Conf{ArchiveComp} = 'gzip'; and if i run archive from web interface it is set as the default and archives are compressed. I looked into BackupPC_archiveStart script and it seems to ignore compression settings and uses cat insteda of compression: These are the lines 94-106 my %ArchiveReq = ( archiveloc => $bpc->{Conf}{ArchiveDest}, archtype => 0, compression => $bpc->{Conf}{CatPath}, compext => '.raw', parfile => $bpc->{Conf}{ArchivePar}, splitsize => '0000000', host => $ArchiveHost, HostList => \...@hostlist, BackupList => \...@backuplist, user => $UserName, reqTime => time, ); I think there should be something to get compression setting from config.pl instead of CatPath and .raw.
