[BackupPC-users] Error when backuping UTF8 share 'C$ = '/UTF8 chars/*' - Zlib.pm line 426
Hi all :)! My configuration: BackupPC 3.1.0 on CentOS 5.2 When I set up $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} with UTF8 chars than BackupPC fails with error in a main log. E.g. C$ = /Komerční sféra kontakty/* 2008-08-14 15:49:30 pc1: Wide character in subroutine entry at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Compress/Zlib.pm line 426. On the other hand everything works well when UTF8 chars are deeper in directory structure. Has anybody any idea how to solve this error? Thanks a lot for your help.

[BackupPC-users] notes on Seagate Free Agent drive
A couple days ago, someone asked about Linux and Western Digital external hard drives. This is a response, sort of. I am posting my notes on how I got a Seagate Free Agent drive to work with Linux. I hope this will help with other drives. I make no guarantees. We purchased a Seagate FreeAgent USB drive. Unfortunately, Seagate only supports it with Windows and Macs. It worked find with Windows XP. On the Linux box, that was a different story. Research indicated that the drive was already formatted into NTFS. I knew this would not be an issue as people mount NTFS partitions all the time on Linux. I went to the site www.linux-ntfs.org. I found just about all I needed on that site. I found this page especially helpful: www.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php?id=ntfsmount. It had some good instructions: First of all you need to download FUSE from Sourcefourge. Then: tar zxvf fuse-2.7.0.tar.gz cd fuse-2.7.0 ./configure Make make install Then you need to install ntfsprogs: tar zxvf ntfsprogs-2.0.0.tar.gz cd ntfsprogs-2.0.0 ./configure --enable-fuse-module Make make install This installed the ntfsmount command, which I did not have before. But I wasn't quite finished. Apparently the issue with this drive has to do with power management. I ran the command hdparm -Z to disable Seagate auto-powersaving mode. After that, I simply ran the command: ntfsmount /dev/sda1 /media/FreeAgent_Drive Then, I was ready to go. I could get to the hard drive through the GUI or the command line.

Why didn't you just reformat it with your favorite filesystem?

Re: [BackupPC-users] Error restore with rsync and spaces in file names
Lukas Wymann schrieb: Hi everybody Backup works perfectly. But: When I want to restore a file, it works on a - how should say, pure physical level. For example: /home/sub-directory/another dirextiry/second subdirecctory/file1.doc /home/sub-directory/another dirextiry/file2.doc all is beeing saved correctly Now, when I restore file2.doc, it creates the following file: /home/sub-directory/another\ where another\ is the file restored. It does not handle the spaces within the directory-name (same happnes with file names containing spaces). Also when I do restore a whole sub-directory, it creates a path and therein the subdirectories as follows: /home/sub-directory/another\ in this it creates subdirectory /home/sub-directory/another\ /second subdirectory with all it's files. Thanks for any help or suggestion Lukas System running ubuntu 8.04-server, with samba-shares from local network and backuppc v.3.0.0 (with apt-get install backuppc, therefore standard installation within ubuntu) Update Infos: using rsync locally, therefore not through ssh - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
