I am running backuppc version 3.3.1 on an Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS, I try to
backup several Linux servers, almost Debian, ubuntu or proxmox hosts.

My issue is that when I run the Full/Incermental backup from webUI I got
the message:

2018-08-06 14:22:32 full backup started for directory /var/lib/vz/dump/dump
(baseline backup #1) 2018-08-06 14:22:33 Aborting backup up after signal
PIPE 2018-08-06 14:22:34 Got fatal error during xfer (aborted by
signal=PIPE) <

My backup drive is a nfs drive which is mounted as /mnt/backuppc and topdir
for backuppc is /mnt/backuppc/backuppc I am able to write into it with user
backuppc and/or root.

I went through several documentations and here are what I have done for
debugging.

ssh -l root domain whoami root

su
    su -s /bin/bash backuppc
        /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_dump -v -f HOST

gives me this output

as a partial backup since it has fewer files than the prior one (got 0 and

When I run the rsync command manually, the backup is started correctly:

rsync -av -e ssh root@HOST:/var/lib/vz/dump/dump
/mnt/backuppc/backuppc/pc/pHOST/2<

Here below my HOST.pl file:

$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [
#  '/etc',
  '/var/lib/vz/dump/dump'
];
$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = '$sshPath -o ServerAliveInterval=300 -q -x -l
root $host $rsyncPath $argList+';
$Conf{RsyncArgs} = [
  '--protocol=29',
  '--numeric-ids',
  '--perms',
  '--owner',
  '--group',
  '-D',
  '--links',
  '--hard-links',
  '--times',
  '--block-size=2048'
];
$Conf{ClientTimeout} = 72000;
$Conf{PingMaxMsec} = 50;
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';
$Conf{RsyncClientPath} = '/usr/bin/rsync';

I don't understand why it could log into the hosts to backup correctly and
aborting immediatly after the backup start.

Can someone help me find a way out of this issue as I think I have done all
the google search that could be done on this error message. Thanks a lot.
