Hi,
I'm receiving an error concerning the header when I run extract in amrecover
with the windows client. I have no problems with the dump. And amrecover
itself seems to be working alright. No problem with Linux clients when doing
recover. The error occurs when I run the extract command on Windows (windows
client 2.5.2p1). The message displayed is as follows:
amrecover: strange amanda header: "AMANDA: FILE 20080703010001
web2.blueprint.org "C://cygwin/music" lev 1 comp N program /bin/tar
To restore, position tape at start of file and run:
dd if=<tape> bs=32k skip=1 | /bin/tar.exe -f - ...
♀
"
amrecover: Expected: "lev" Actual: "<null>"
WEIRD file
amrecover: bad header
Extractor child exited with status 1
*****************************************************************************
I use *dd if=<filename> bs=32k count=1* to check and compare the file
headers, but they looks normal...
*The windows backup file header:*
AMANDA: FILE 20080630172611 web2.blueprint.org "C://cygwin/music" lev 0 comp
N program /bin/tar
To restore, position tape at start of file and run:
dd if=<tape> bs=32k skip=1 | /bin/tar.exe -f - ...
*The linux backup file header:*
AMANDA: FILE 20080626010001 web1.blueprint.org /var/www/html lev 0 comp .gz

Thank you in advance! (Not very familiar in using mailing list...Thanks
Dustin and Jean who answer my previous question... )
