Thanks Pierre-Yves for the hint, and Craig for confirming. Just this minute, I was about to write that the maintainer of the Arch Linux package (Sébastien Luttringer, amazingly swift!) already updated the package with the new rsync-bpc and BackupPC::XS, and the issue is gone with the new version.

Re: [BackupPC-users] rsync-bpc claims that "file has vanished", but tries to download it over and over again

Yes, that bug is fixed in the latest versions of BackupPC (4.3.1) and rsync_bpc (3.1.2.1). It sounds like you have the latest BackupPC, but you will need to upgrade to the latest rsync_bpc. Craig On Mon, Jul 29, 2019 at 12:29 PM Alexander Kobel wrote: > Hi, > > On 29.07.19 18:30, Pierre-Yves

[BackupPC-users] rsync-bpc claims that "file has vanished", but tries to download it over and over again

Dear all, I just noticed that one of two virtually identical BackupPC instances, both backing up the same host (my email server), reports for a couple weeks that some files vanished - and they are. So why does it insist on trying to download it over and over again? In the error log of server 1

Re: [BackupPC-users] rsync backup permissions

Is rsync running as root on the client side? If not, it won't have permission to chown files to root. An example setting would be: $Conf{RsyncClientPath} = 'sudo /usr/bin/rsync'; This requires the backuppc user to have sudo privileges. You should exercise some caution in doing this, since a

[BackupPC-users] rsync backup permissions

Hi, New Backup PC user here.  I just ran a backup/restore test of a Linux client using the rsync backup method.  The restore worked but the file was not owned by root but rather the backuppc user.  Is there a way to change this behavior so that restored files retain the original ownership?

[BackupPC-users] Rsync-Error on new Backuppc 4

Hello, we have been using Backuppc 3 for some years to create daily backups of about a hundred VMs. Our old server hit it's storage capacity limit a few month ago so we decided to set up a new server with a zfs filesystem and a recent version of Backuppc, 4. All of our hosts are backed up

Re: [BackupPC-users] rsync optimisation

I've found that the version of rsync that Apple bundles is pretty squirrelly -- there are some posts in the archive about this. But generally speaking, there were some BackupPC-default rsync arguments that didn't play nicely with Apple's rsync. I don't recall having issues with BPCv3, but with

Re: [BackupPC-users] rsync file restore ownership

While an rsync transfer is in progress, parent directories are owned by root, and changed when all subdirectories are completed. Could there have been an interruption? On Fri, Dec 14, 2018 at 11:41 AM Pete Geenhuizen wrote: > It's been a while since I had to restore a file which has always gone

Re: [BackupPC-users] rsync file restore ownership

Not that I'm aware of, but I will say that I was restoring 2 subdirectories at the same time into my home, and perhaps the restores collided with the result that neither restore were able to set the ownership correctly when they were done. I'll have to test that out. Thanks for the reply.

It's been a while since I had to restore a file which has always gone as expected. Today I restored 2 directories along with all the files to my home using the same method that I've always used, i.e. logged into the web interface as root and selecting the appropriate files and the world was

Re: [BackupPC-users] Rsync issue

Matt, I'm happy to take a look at the logs. The "io timeout after 72035 seconds" suggests something has stalled, and we'd like to find out what is going on just before that. Yes, the first step will be to increase the XferLogLevel to see what is happening before things stall. Maybe try 5?

[BackupPC-users] Rsync issue

All, Am using BackupPC 4.2.1 on a Redhat 7.5 host to backup a rather large repository of data. I believe things worked OK with tar but after we changed the file system we switched back to Rsync. I think we have plenty of others which roughly equal in size but backup fine. Not sure if

Re: [BackupPC-users] rsync error buffer overflow

BackupPC 3.x uses older versions of the rsync protocol, which requires the entire file list to be stored in memory. BackupPC 4.x uses pretty up-to-date versions of rsync, which no longer requires the full file list to be stored. So it's likely that BackupPC 4.x will have a better chance of
