Hi, All, After a long period of flawless behavior, I have recently (since August 2) had both runtime and build failures with amanda. I do daily gentoo updates, always use revdep-rebuild and lafilefixer, always follow post installation advice in the log. I can't reinstall amanda because the build fails (documented below), and I can't use amcheck to see if amanda thinks there's a problem with configuration because amcheck blows an assertion when I try to run it (also documented below). I've found no mention of others with the assertion failure via Google. I have not changed anything about my backup configuration in more than a year, and daily backups have run flawlessly until August 2.
Any thoughts on how to proceed? runtime: *** THE DUMPS DID NOT FINISH PROPERLY! Hostname: tobey Org : tobey backup Config : tobey Date : August 2, 2010 The next tape Amanda expects to use is: tape-4.
