I've just encountered the same problem from issue #171 on github, "on
restore all files owner root"
https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/issues/171
My RsyncRestoreArgs are the same as reported there, with the exception
that I don't have --ignore-times. I have done the tar restore check
there and confirmed that the files in the tarball show root/root ownership.
The troubleshooting in the ticket ended with the suggestion "Can you
look in the most recent full backup XferLOG file and see what
permissions are transferred for that file? You might need to increase
the XferLogLevel to 2 or 3 and then do a new full backup to see
permissions on unchanged files." which the user in that case did not
respond to. I have attempted that step, but, even with XferLogLevel set
to 3 (as a per-host override) and doing a full backup of my test host,
XferLOG.[backup number] does not contain any individual file
names/paths, so I'm not able to check the permissions there. Latest
test XferLOG attached for reference.
(I'm actually a little skeptical at this point as to whether
XferLogLevel even does anything these days, as there are no obvious
differences in the XferLOG files at log level 1 vs. log level 3.)
What's my next step, and is there any further documentation on this
problem aside from the ticket for #171?
My overall setup is a Debian 11 server running debianized BPC 4.4.0-3
(the latest version from the stable repo) with a mixed pool of clients -
mostly Debian, but also some Windows, TrueNAS, OS X, and Centos machines.
