This was my most recent error along these lines: SpecialFileError var/lib/apache/fastcgi/80292d047b4ad9c7faad6b676c4fe423 Socket error: AF_UNIX path too long I get these every now and then. Presumably these are temporary files (sockets, actually, in this case) being created and destroyed rapidly, and so I only see the error when the planets align and the backup coincides with the temporary file. I don't worry about it in this case. I don't recall ever seeing it on non-socket files for that matter. Now that I think about it, shouldn't rdiff-backup be ignoring sockets files? _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
