I'm having trouble getting the amanda backups going under cygwin. The server is backing up serveral other linux boxes so I think that's
ok. The data is being sent to the server from the cygwin box but the
index file is empty.
The only thing that is showing any indication of a problem in in the sendbackup log. which is reflected in the mail message below. I'm sure that sed and tar (I'm using the latest version) are ok.
-rw------- 1 backup backup 20 Jul 1 16:17 20030701_0.gz -rw------- 1 backup backup 20 Jul 1 16:40 20030701_1.gz -rw------- 1 backup backup 20 Jul 2 11:37 20030702_0.gz
Error reported for mail.
/-- xbox /cygdrive/c/ProgramFiles lev 0 STRANGE sendbackup: start [xbox:/cygdrive/c/ProgramFiles level 0] sendbackup: info BACKUP=/usr/bin/tar sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/usr/bin/gzip -dc |/usr/bin/tar -f... - sendbackup: info COMPRESS_SUFFIX=.gz sendbackup: info end ? sed: not found | Total bytes written: 471193600 (449MB, 802kB/s) sendbackup: size 460150 sendbackup: end \--------
The dumptype used is as follows.
define dumptype comp-user-tar {
program "GNUTAR"
comment "partitions dumped with tar"
options compress-fast, index, exclude-list "/etc/amanda/exclude.gtar"
priority medium
}Does anyone have and idea about how I can troubleshoot this problem. I've looked throught the faq-o-matic and searched through amanda-users.
Many thanks
Michael.
