I rebuilt a machine to update to CentOS 8 and ease upgrades because BackupPC v.4.40 (as of 2020-10-28) is available via epel & PowerTools repo per this: https://kifarunix.com/install-and-configure-backuppc-on-centos-8/

I created the symlink for /var/lib/BackupPC to connect to /dataR6 (a raid6 array). I copied all the directories and files over from /var/lib/BackupPC, changed directory and file permissions of the new directory to match the old and restarted BackupPC.

Apparently I did something incorrectly. BackupPC runs but, will not capture a client. "Clicking" 'FULL BACKUP' of any existing client causes nothing. Checking 'Server Status' and no backups have started. Checking logs states "Can't open log file."

Suggestions on what to do?
