Hello,
I have a strange situation which might be the result either of a
rdiff-backup bug or file lossage from a server crash. The output below
is from rdiff-backup attempting to do a normal backup, in which it
regressed the previous unsuccessful one and tried again, only to bomb
out. This cycle is 100% repeatable.
The problem is that "/backup/services/www/cms/lang" really doesn't exist
in the destination repository, and I don't know if rdiff-backup deleted
it or it disappeared after a server crash. In any case, it seems to make
my repository unusable. Have I just lost all the backups?
Any ideas?
Any suggestions for a similar backup tool which is not so sensitive to
crashes? I would really appreciate something fsck-like which would in
effect nuke all corrupted data in the destination repository and allow
me to continue using it as-is. The "--check-destination-dir" option to
rdiff-backup apparently doesn't deal with any serious issues.
(this is rdiff-backup-1.2.8 and "/backup" is a NFS mount point)
Warning: expected /backup/services/www/cms/lang to be a directory but
found None instead.
This is probably caused by a bug in versions 1.0.0 and earlier.
