I recently switched to the 3.3.3 version of amanda and now I can't extract files from tape using amfetchdump. I get the same error with 3.3.4. The XML::Simple perl module is installed. Has anyone else seen this error?
$ amfetchdump Daily hostname / 1 volume(s) needed for restoration The following volumes are needed: DLY009 Press enter when ready amfetchdump: Could not find amfetchdump.xml in /usr/local/amanda/sbin/ at /usr/local/amanda/sbin/amfetchdump line 507
From the end of the debug log:
