Installed libtime-modules-perl per instruction I received directly from
Holger Parplies. Ran BackupPC_fixupBackupSummary on my hosts with lost
backups and got the following messages:
Doing host gandolf
Reading LOG.112006
Reading LOG.z
Reading LOG.0.z
*** No info for backup number 42
*** No info for backup number 22
*** No info for backup number 50
*** No info for backup number 49
*** No info for backup number 48
No changes for host gandolf
Is there anything else I can do?
Thanks,
Eric

Thanks Craig.
In what directory do I install Time::ParseDate?
Yes, there is not corresponding entries for each folder so I will run
after I install Time:ParseDate.
Thanks again, I appreciate your hard work on BackupPC.

Part of the problem was that file owners and groups were wrong. I
changed the owner and group to be backuppc:backuppc and I can now see
some of my backup files. I have about eight backups that I cannot see at
all even though I can see them with the file manager. Craig, about
eight weeks ago you helped someone with a script that could rebuild
backups. The link here
<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.backuppc.general/8071/match=rebuild+backups+3
+0>.
I tried that and got this error:
debian:~# /usr/local/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_fixupBackupSummary -l legolas
Can't locate Time/ParseDate.pm in @INC (@INC contains:

/usr/local/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_fixupBackupSummary line 44.

What needs to be done so that I have the best chance of getting as many
backups visible and usable as possible?
You need to install Time::ParseDate from CPAN.
But you should only be running BackupPC_fixupBackupSummary if you are
sure the backups file (ie: TOP/pc/HOST/backups) is lost or corrupted.
It is not going to solve a permissions problem.
You should look in TOP/pc/HOST and look for the numbered directories.
Is there a corresponding line in the TOP/pc/HOST/backups file for every
numbered directory? If not, then you can run BackupPC_fixupBackupSummary
to try to recover the old information.
