Problem #1:    I'm have trouble setting up CGI for backuppc on Debian
etch. Paths / scripts are missing or aren't where the documentation says
they should be. Specifically I can't locate BackupPC_Admin.
Installation seemed to go fine:

tsDeb:/etc/apache-ssl# apt-get install backuppc

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree... Done

Suggested packages:

  libfile-rsyncp-perl par2

The following NEW packages will be installed:

  backuppc

0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Need to get 0B/417kB of archives.

After unpacking 1649kB of additional disk space will be used.

Preconfiguring packages ...

Selecting previously deselected package backuppc.

(Reading database ... 12905 files and directories currently installed.)

Unpacking backuppc (from .../backuppc_2.1.2-6_all.deb) ...

Setting up backuppc (2.1.2-6) ...

Starting backuppc: ok.

 

Try and find BackupPC_Admin, mentioned in Step 9 of the backuppc
document: 

tsDeb:/usr/share/backuppc# find / -name BackupPC_Admin

tsDeb:/usr/share/backuppc#

 

Binaries were installed in /usr/share/backuppc and not
/usr/backuppc/bin:

tsDeb:/usr/share/backuppc# ls

bin  cgi-bin  doc  image  lib

tsDeb:/usr/share/backuppc# ls bin

BackupPC              BackupPC_compressPool  BackupPC_nightly
BackupPC_serverMesg  BackupPC_trashClean

BackupPC_archive      BackupPC_dump          BackupPC_restore
BackupPC_tarCreate   BackupPC_zcat

BackupPC_archiveHost  BackupPC_link          BackupPC_sendEmail
BackupPC_tarExtract  BackupPC_zipCreate

 

I've tried removing and reinstalling backuppc, perl, and apache without
success. 

 

Problem #2: CGI path is also puzzling. Is this correct / expected?

    /usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin is apparently the path:

        tsDeb:/usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin# ls

        image  index.cgi

 

 

Any hints are appreciated.

Thx,

Timothy Snider
