When I try and give it the full path to the config.pl path and I press enter.
It's just repeating the path I have given it, it's not moving on to the next
step of the installation?
Example:
--> Full path to existing main config.pl []? /configure.pl --batch --cgi-dir
/var/www/cgi-bin/BackupPC --data-dir /var/lib/backuppc --backuppc01 backuppc
--html-dir /var/www/html/BackupPC
The file '/configure.pl --batch --cgi-dir /var/www/cgi-bin/BackupPC --data-dir
/var/lib/backuppc --backuppc01 backuppc --html-dir /var/www/html/BackupPC'
doesn't exist.
Is this a new installation or upgrade for BackupPC? If this is
an upgrade please tell me the full path of the existing BackupPC
configuration file (eg: /etc/BackupPC/config.pl). Otherwise, just
hit return.
--> Full path to existing main config.pl [/configure.pl --batch --cgi-dir
/var/www/cgi-bin/BackupPC --data-dir /var/lib/backuppc --backuppc01 backuppc
--html-dir /var/www/html/BackupPC]?
The file '/configure.pl --batch --cgi-dir /var/www/cgi-bin/BackupPC --data-dir
/var/lib/backuppc --backuppc01 backuppc --html-dir /var/www/html/BackupPC'
doesn't exist.

configuration file (eg: /etc/BackupPC/config.pl). Otherwise, just
hit return.
It just keeps repeating itself?

So can I just install the tar file again then, and when it asks me for the

My suggestion is yes, give it a whirl.
More accurately, I'd suggest saving a copy of your current config.pl, so you
can try again if anything goes awry. Also, depending on what procedure or
script you're using, you may want to examine it to see if it has options to
update your config.pl or assume you need a new one, as the one from which that
command line came. It doesn't need to be done at the same time as the tar
installation, but it won't hurt to go through the steps again, either.
