Thank you for forwarding the configuration directory. Looking within the configuration file I would suggest altering the following :
# Backup Source (no trailing slash is required) backupSource=/volumes/Data to # Backup Source (no trailing slash is required) backupSource=/Volumes/Data If this is running on a Mac OS X based system the default is for file systems to be case sensitive. Are you using a non-case sensitive file system on the boot drive? Also, I noticed the following line within the configuration file. Would you please outline why the following line is inside the configuration file : abort_if_permisions_on_volume_not_set="NO" Any kind of elaboration would be helpful. If the permissions on the destination volume are not enabled. Is there a reason you have not been able to enable permissions on the destination directory? Thanks.
