I have a test install of backuppc up and running, and backing up a
half-dozen Debian servers with no problems. Now our NAS admin has asked
me to add a freenas machine to the test, and it's just giving me
"fileListReceive failed" whenever I try to run a backup.
I've verified that I can ssh in as the bpc user without problems, and
determined that freenas puts rsync in a different place than debian
does, so I created a file at /etc/backuppc/thisnas.pl containing
$Conf {RsyncClientPath} = '/usr/local/bin/rsync';
then forced bpc to re-read the configuration and tried again, but still
"fileListReceive failed".
What's my next step for resolving this? Is it possible to get more
detailed information in the bpc logs than just "fileListReceive failed"?
Note that I do *not* have root/sudo access on the freenas machine, so
there are logs I can't check there. I instructed the nas admin to add
the line
backuppc ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/rsync --server --sender *
to sudoers, and he has done so, so bpc should have sufficient sudo
capability to run, even though I'm not an admin there myself.
