Les, thank you for replying. Re-installing was never an option as I have about 375G backup-data to preserve here. But... moving the files under backuppc up one level and then mounting the partition under a newly created directory called /opt/backuppc did the trick. Thanks a lot, you saved my day! Just curiosity: Which httpd.conf do you mean? is it /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf? And what to look for? I am in no way expert here. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by [email protected] via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to [email protected]. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list [email protected] List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
