Maybe sounds familiar? Try:
cp -R /var/lib/BackupPC /BackupDriveLoc chown -R backuppc:backuppc /BackupDriveLoc rm -rf /var/lib/BackupPC ln -s /BackupDriveLoc /var/lib/BackupPC chcon system_u:object_r:var_lib_t:s0 /var/lib/BackupPC chcon -R system_u:object_r:var_lib_t:s0 /var/lib/BackupPC/* Thanks, Greg Harris On Oct 28, 2020, at 4:43 PM, Robert E.

If you unmount dataR6 do you still the the directories in /var/lib/BackupPC? Not that it should matter, since mounting will mask any files left in the directory :) Symbolic links should work but I've always preferred bind mounting. If you log in as the backuppc user can you create files in /var/lib/BackupPC? # su -l backuppc -s /bin/bash $ touch /var/lib/BackupPC/test Or something like that. Also, look at both the BackupPC logs and the apache logs. Thanks, Richard So, I have realized that I could rebuild (again) and I will not be "out much" but, what I would do differently this time is the installation sequence. Previously, I had installed the OS, installed BackupPC (it ran but /var/lib/BackupPC was storing on the OS hdd and not the raid array.) After I'd gotten BackupPC to run, then I created the raid array. My problems began to mount. This install, I would OS first, setup the array and create the symlink and then, install BackupPC. The BackupPC install should simply follow the symlink (think it is the /var/lib/BackupPC directory it's looking for) and place backup files and directories onto the array, like I want. I will need to change my install sequence and that should solve my problem . . . I think.
