I have been fighting this for about a week now and running circles.

/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_dump -v -f localhost

Backup aborted (Unknown module 'root')
dump failed: Unknown module 'root'

OK, so what defines module root?
cat /etc/rsyncd.conf

use chroot = false
hosts allow = 192.168.1.107
log file = /etc/rsyncd.log
pid file = /etc/rsyncd.pid
lock file = /etc/rsyncd.lock
   strict modes = false
   auth users = backuppc
   secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets
   read only = false
   list = false
[root]
path = /
comment = Entire root

cat /var/lib/backuppc/pc/localhost/conf.pl

$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsyncd';
#$Conf{RsyncShareName} = 'root';
#$Conf{RsyncdUserName} = 'backuppc';
$Conf{RsyncdClientPath} = '/usr/bin/rsync';
$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = '/usr/bin/sudo $rsyncPath $argList';
#$Conf{RsyncdPasswd}  = '****';
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = ['/tmp', '/proc', '/dev', '/cdrom', '/media',
'/floppy', '/mnt', '/var/lib/backuppc', '/shared/backuppc', '/lost+found'];


So I apt-get remove backuppc --purge then reinstall and now I get

dump failed: can't find Compress::Zlib

Yet
cpan> install Compress::Zlib
Compress::Zlib is up to date.


Thank you in advance for your response.
