Hi Sharuzzaman
I'm mounting with a user with sudo rights, not backuppc and not root
itself as on Ubuntu thats disabled by default.
regards

Hi,
What is the account used to mount the NAS?
backuppc or root?
Thanks.

Recently I had to rebuild a backuppc server I’ve inherited from
previous admin. Running Ubuntu 14.04 server and Backuppc version
3.2.1 installed from repositories. The backups are stored on a
Synology NAS (RS3413XS+ running DSM 4.3) which I’ve mounted using NFS.
If I mount the NAS (mount <NAS IP>:/volume5/LinuxBackups
/var/lib/backuppc) I can see the backups on the NAS and can do a
“touch test.txt” and modify contents so permissions seem ok. And
the backuppc web GUI is accessible however I get the following error.
Error: Unable to connect to BackupPC server
This CGI script (/backuppc/index.cgi) is unable to connect to the
BackupPC server on <Servername> port -1.
The error was: unix connect: Connection refused.
Perhaps the BackupPC server is not running or there is a
configuration error. Please report this to your Sys Admin.
If I try and unmount the NAS I get error that mount is in use
(makes sense) but when I try and stop backuppc I get another error
No process in pidfile '/var/run/backuppc/BackupPC.pid' found
running; none killed.
A ps –eg | grep backuppc shows
username@servername~$ ps -ef | grep backuppc

backuppc
If I kill all backuppc services then unmount the NAS and restart
backuppc service and GUI works again as expected.
I have tried searching the backuppc documentation and googled
fairly extensively however only hit I turned up with the above
error was someone using a QNAP NAS on which the firmware had been
updated. Also seeing several pointers to the Backuppc wiki but
this does seems to only contain a couple of screenshots.....
So my question is – what is the correct procedure to mount an
external NAS to the /var/lib/backuppc directory so that backuppc
works as expected? Am I missing something obvious here?
Cheers Kiweegie
