Hello,
I recently upgraded my server's motherboard twice in rapid succession. After
the first upgrade, things were hunky-dory. After the second, backuppc refuses
to, well, backup any PCs.
I have three clients, two of which are rsyncd types, and the other of which is
tar type on the server (localhost). All three fail. I've attached sample logs
at the end of this message.
So far I have tried the following tests:
Test: Running BackupPC_dump -v
Result: Fails. Logs attached.
Test: Running tar command (as called by BackupPC) directly.
Result: succeeds
Test: Running rsync command directly
Result: succeeds
Test: Using "clean slate," i.e. masking all old backups so that backuppc
doesn't check the pool, etc.
Results: fails identically to BackupPC_dump -v, only faster.
Test: Reinstall backuppc, perl, etc.
Result: backups still fail
I'm using BackupPC 2.1.2 on Ubuntu Dapper.
Any ideas on what's going wrong?
Thanks,
Jason
Log from tar-type backupp. Note that the exact amount of data that is
successfully transfer varies greatly (up to ~9 GB), and sometimes it exits with
error 13 rather than error 512.
