Can I please get an update on my issue, please?
This is our only source of backing up our servers, we are not backing up at the
current moment because of this issue.
As mentioned, I upgraded backuppc from 3.3.1 to 4.1.3 from which I download the
tar file from the backuppc website.
However, when I see what version of backuppc I'm currently running right now,
it's still 3.3.1?
I'm not sure what I've done wrong?

I tried to download backuppc-4.1.3 from the backuppc website.
The upgrade went fine, however, I backuppc.server won't start now?
In the GUI, I'm getting.....
Error: Unable to connect to BackupPC server
This CGI script (/backuppc/index.cgi) is unable to connect to the BackupPC
server on backuppc01 port -1.
The error was: unix connect: No such file or directory.
Perhaps the BackupPC server is not running or there is a configuration error.
Please report this to your Sys Admin.
And when I try to run "service backuppc restart", Im getting.....
Job for backuppc.service failed because the control process exited with error
code. See "systemctl status backuppc.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
And when I run "systemctl status backuppc.service", Im getting.....

I followed the upgrade instructions correctly.
I have no working backuppc now...any ideas, please?

My distro is Ubuntu 16.04.3
I try to upgrade just backuppc, and it's telling me that "backuppc is already
the newest version (3.3.1-2ubuntu3.3)."
I'm not sure on how I can upgrade backuppc to 3.3.2 or later as you suggested?

Sincere apologies for the late reply.
You mention that version 3.3.1 doesn’t work with 4.3 of smbclient.
How do I downgrade the smbclient, please?
Unfortunately, that highly depends on your distro and/or flavor or how you've
installed samba or smbclient in the first place. For some distros, it's as
simple as specifying the version to the package manager or using the
recommended downgrade path, for others, it can be much more complicated,
requiring building from source or alternative repositories.
It might be simpler to upgrade to version 3.3.2 (or later) instead.
IIRC, the issue is that smbclient changed its reporting, so that BackupPC has
trouble recognizing when the files are actually successfully retrieved, when in
fact they are.
