I am trying to use rdiff-backup from cron on an Ubuntu 10.04 server. I have
a script with this
rdiff-backup /home/dan/data /media/sdb1/data
rdiff-backup /home/dan/data2 /media/sda1/data
crontab looks like this:
* 21 * * * sh /home/dan/backupscript.sh
Here is the error I get from cron
Fatal Error: It appears that a previous rdiff-backup session with process
id 10778 is still running....
That crontab entry means "Run this command _every_minute_ during hour 21".
If you want the backup to run at the start of that hour, you want
0 21 * * * sh /home/dan/backupscript.sh
