Thanks for pointing that out.
I have a suspicion that the problem has to do with the intersection of the
BackupFilesOnly and BackupFilesExclude options in your config file. I know I
wrestled with something like this once long ago, and it took a lot of
experimentation to get things to behave the way I wanted them to.
Here's some ideas to use for testing.
Set this in your config file:
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = '/mnt/user';
and then ONE of either:
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {
'/mnt/user' => [
'/appdata',
'/nextcloud',
'/CentOS-Data',
'/WINTESS'
]
};
OR
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'/' => [
'/CentOS-Data/9.6'
]
};
and see if it at least backs up *something*. Then start trying different
combinations of options to see where things work or break.
