Also, I checked the Apache log for every time I reload the GUI, and the error 
I'm getting is...

I've just tried the /configure.pl --batch --cgi-dir /var/www/cgi-bin/BackupPC 
--data-dir /var/lib/backuppc --backuppc01 backuppc  --html-dir 
/var/www/html/BackupPC' command, and it hasn't worked I'm afraid, I tried 
reinstalling the Bakcuppc-41.3 tar file again, and gave it the full correct 
paths, and when I try to restart the service I'm still getting Job for 
backuppc.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See 
"systemctl status backuppc.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. With 
regards to the SCGI port number, do I set it to -1 or give it a port number?


And I'm still getting the internal error in the GUI. I don't understand why 
this has happened, all I did was upgraded the software, it looks like I'm going 
to have to re-raid my server and start fresh!!!


Is there any way to roll back to my previous version of BackupPC please?

My suggestion is yes, give it a whirl.

More accurately, I'd suggest saving a copy of your current config.pl, so you 
can try again if anything goes awry. Also, depending on what procedure or 
script you're using, you may want to examine it to see if it has options to 
update your config.pl or assume you need a new one, as the one from which that 
command line came. It doesn't need to be done at the same time as the tar 
installation, but it won't hurt to go through the steps again, either.

It's just repeating the path I have given it, it's not moving on to the next 
step of the installation?

Example:

--> Full path to existing main config.pl []? /configure.pl --batch --cgi-dir 
/var/www/cgi-bin/BackupPC --data-dir /var/lib/backuppc --backuppc01 backuppc 
--html-dir /var/www/html/BackupPC The file ‘/configure.pl --batch --cgi-dir 
/var/www/cgi-bin/BackupPC --data-dir /var/lib/backuppc --backuppc01 backuppc 
--html-dir /var/www/html/BackupPC’ doesn't exist.

Is this a new installation or upgrade for BackupPC? If this is an upgrade 
please tell me the full path of the existing BackupPC configuration file (eg: 
/etc/BackupPC/config.pl). Otherwise, just hit return.

It just keeps repeating itself?

I believe I misunderstood what you were asking. When it asks for the full path, 
just give it the full path to your config.pl, which is likely to be something 
like /etc/BackupPC/config.pl — I'm not sure what the Ubuntu convention is, so 
you might need to locate it first. What I provided was a command line that 
would process a config.pl in the current directory, that you may need to tailor 
to your current paths. Sorry about the confusion.
