Check to see if some problem has truncated your tapelist file. If a problem (e.g., no space left on a device) prevents the tapelist from being created or some other problem truncated the file, then you could expect to see a problem like this. Check to see if there have been any drive faults or other system events at the time when Amanda
started giving you strange results.
I have created a patch, which seems not yet included in the current sources, for similar errors:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amanda-hackers/message/3769
(but it seems that this is not the problem, as Lucio seems to indicate that there ARE enough entries in the tapelist file. Maybe a permission problem? Or looking at a file with the same name but not the one as configured in amanda.conf?)
Jean-Louis,
This patch was posted, while you were on holiday, or burried under the work... I believe it's nice to include anyway.
