Running: /usr/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/tarCreate -v -f - -C /data --totals . full backup started for directory /data Xfer PIDs are now 23492,23491 apache2/ assp/ assp/spam/ assp/spam/3242 assp/spam/2924 assp/spam/1809 assp/spam/899 assp/spam/607 assp/spam/1899 which is confusing as I've removed the tarCreate wrapper so I've no idea where its picking that up from. In desperation I rebooted the server, but it still comes up. The relevant section from the machine.pl file is: $Conf{XferMethod} = 'tar'; $Conf{TarClientCmd} = '/usr/bin/sudo /bin/tar -c -v -f - -C $shareName+ --totals'; $Conf{TarIncrArgs} = '--newer=$incrDate $fileList'; Anyway, the XferLOG.bad continues with file names in assp/spam until around line 100 where it changes to: assp/spam/3552 assp/spam/1666 create d 755 0/0 0 . create d 755 0/0 0 apache2 create d 755 99/0 0 assp create d 755 99/0 0 assp/spam pool 600 99/99 10066 assp/spam/3242 pool 600 99/99 10007 assp/spam/2924 pool 600 99/99 10014 assp/spam/1809 pool 600 99/99 1566 assp/spam/899 I get around 60 of these lines beginning with pool and then from there it alternates between just the file names and the "pool" lines. I guess this is it finding the file in the pool. The first directory /data then finishes and it starts on the second, where it seems to go wrong: pool 554 0/0 3999 www/backuppc/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin tarExtract: Done: 0 errors, 116182 filesExist, 14267486394 sizeExist, 11865427525 sizeExistComp, 124095 filesTotal, 14494799736 sizeTotal Running: /usr/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/tarCreate -v -f - -C /usr --totals . full backup started for directory /usr Xfer PIDs are now 8150,8149 tarExtract: ./ tarExtract: ./bin/ tarExtract: ./bin/X11 tarExtract: ./bin/indent tarExtract: ./: checksum error at create 0 0/0 0 tarExtract: ./bin/ tarExtract: ./bin/X11 tarExtract: ./bin/indent tarExtract: . tarExtract: : checksum error at tarExtract: Can't open /backup/pc/rivera/new/f%2fusr/ for empty output create 0 0/0 0 . tarExtract: : checksum error at tarExtract: Can't open /backup/pc/rivera/new/f%2fusr/ for empty output create 0 0/0 0 . tarExtract: : checksum error at tarExtract: Can't open /backup/pc/rivera/new/f%2fusr/ for empty output create 0 0/0 0 .
