What was the error? Same?
I take it doing a cd before the command and omitting --directory worked?
Thanks.

Hello Eric,
I've solved it by set a change directory before the problematic tar command.
The suggested change will be tested tonight.
I'm using CentOS 5 latest update (5.10). Qtp:
qmailtoaster-plus-0.3.2-1.4.20
Thanks,
Peter

Hello list,
on my qtp installation the backup doesn't work any more. I don't
remember that I've change something in the script, so maybe it's an
issue one of the yum update processes.
I've trace the issue to the next command which is located in the script:
tar -C $backupdest \
-czf $backupdest/$curlfile $DATENAME-*
When I start the command on the console it result to an error:
[root@mail ~]# tar -C /backup/qmailbkup -czf
/backup/qmailbkup/201404052008-backup.tar.gz 201404052008-*
tar: 201404052008-*: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
When I look in the directory /backup/qmailbkup I see the next files:
201404052008-assign.tar.bz2
201404052008-backup.tar.gz
201404052008-qmailadminpasswd.tar.bz2
201404052008-qmailcontrol.tar.bz2
201404052008-spamassassin-files.tar.bz2
201404052008-squirrelmail-plugins.tar.bz2
201404052008-squirrelmail-prefs.tar.bz2
201404052008-vpopmail.sql.gz
The problem is that I don't see the difference with command which is
also in the qtp-backup script:
tar -C /var/lib/squirrelmail/prefs \
-cjf $backupdest/$SQMAILPREFS *
I hope one of you can see the problem.
Regards,
Peter

My apologies for breaking this. I don't see the difference either to be
honest. I thought this version had been run already, and perhaps it was
with an older version where it worked.
tar is a little squirrelly with the options. It doesn't appear to be
picking up the -C option properly, for whatever reason.
Please try this:
# tar --create --gzip --file $backupdest/$curlfile \
--directory $backupdest $DATENAME-*
and let us know if that works.
P.S. Which versions are you running (OS and qtp)?
