Re: [BackupPC-users] Curious Message to PC user

2018-11-19 Thread Craig Barratt via BackupPC-users

I suspect this happens when there is no completed backup, but the first one
is currently underway.  In 3.x the HOST's backups file is not updated until
after a backup completes, but in 4.x an "active" entry is written to the
backups file when the backup starts, which causes BackupPC_sendEmail to
send the confusing message.  Yes, as Wade observed it thinks the last
backup is the linux epoch at t = 0 because the temporary "active" entry in
the backups file doesn't yet have all the fields filled in.

The correct message to send is the "no successful backups" message.

I'll commit a fix, hopefully tonight.

Where in the conf file will that be? (yes we had a chuckle at how far back that 
time/date was).

That's more than 48 years, did you check the SRV timestamp?

Re: [BackupPC-users] Curious Message to PC user

2018-11-19 Thread Jenkins, Wade William

I think 17851 days ago would be 1/1/1970.  I’ve never seen this particular 
error with BackupPC, but it’s not that far-fetched for a non-existent last 
backup date to default to that.

Hi there,

One of my users received this recently:

“Your PC (COMPUTERNAME.GOES.HERE) has not been successfully backed up for 
17851.4 days.
Your PC has been correctly backed up 1 times from 0.3 to 17851.4 days ago.  PC 
backups should occur automatically when your PC is connected to the network.

If your PC has been connected for more than a few hours to the network during 
the last 17851.4 days you should contact IS to find out why backups are not 
working.

Otherwise, if you are out of the office, there's not much you can do, other 
than manually copying especially critical files to other media.  You should be 
aware that any files you have created or changed in the last 17851.4 days 
(including all new email and
attachments) cannot be restored if your PC disk crashes. “

This was for a brand new computer that was setup on Friday. Has anyone else had 
wildly high numbers for “not backed up successfully” emails previously?

Thanks,
Jaime

[BackupPC-users] failing smb backup

2018-11-19 Thread Philip Parsons (Velindre - Medical Physics)

Hi,

I have a new backup set up on backuppc that has run fully a few times (without 
any issues).

However, it has stopped backing up and is repeated failing with the following 
error log:

Can anyone offer any advice in diagnosing this?

Thanks in advance!
