Gene,

When you have an amstatus bug, always post the amdump log file use, it is printed on the first output line.

Greetings;

REPOST #4, what the heck??? Why are my posts going into a black hole? Never mind, I was using the wrong account, this is still a gmail subscription

Most other indications are that the backup was successful, but the email
I got from the backup.sh wrapper script contained this:

): WARNING **: Use of uninitialized value $2 in string eq at /usr/local/sbin/amstatus line 580, <AMDUMP> line 1645.


** (process:24848): WARNING **: Use of uninitialized value $3 in division (/) at /usr/local/sbin/amstatus line 583, <AMDUMP> line 1645.

And when I got up just now (at 4am this msg never came back), x was asking me for a login, and when I did, it was very slow to start. But the only lines in the log was 55 minutes after amanda started and was preceded by a usb reset on the port my wireless keyboard/mouse is on:

Jan 6 01:55:14 coyote kdm[3099]: X server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly

At this point  I have no other clues.  I had been in bed for about 2 hours,
so it wasn't anything I did unless I'm sleep walking. ;-)

This would have been about the time amanda finished.
This was 3.2.1-svn.3744, first run.  However, I just ran an amstatus Daily,
and got the same 2 error lines shown above in the shell I ran it from, so it looks as if 3.2.1-svn.3744's amstatus might need a little more time in the oven.

I think the canary is going back to bed now...
(he did, but this post never came back and its had most of 8 hours)
