Hello, and thanks for the reply :) Checked "man afio" and the -1 parameter is there (Version 2.4.7) but -1 m means:
-1 "Defined letters are a for ignoring all possible warnings on exit, and m for ignoring the warning about missing files, which will occur when, on creating an archive, a file whose name was read from the standard input is not found. The default is -1 m." So if the file is missing it shouldn't return an error, right, so my assumption is that the error here should be something different. Anyway when I tried to change to "-1 a" checking /etc/flexbackup.conf ,the -1 m switch wasn't there. I'll need to read and learn more about flexbackup I guess :) I will check the flexbackup -ignore-errors if that switch can help me. But is that "good behavior", to tell flexbackup to ignore errors? Thanks again...

The command parameters passed by flexbackup to afio have changed in the recent versions. See the afio man page, specifically the '-1' parameter. You can edit the flexbackup script to fix this. Search for '-1 m ' and change it to '-1 a ' (note the trailing space character). (You can see the '-l m' in the afio command line above.) See also the flexbackup '-ignore-errors' parameter to help solve your problem.
