Re: [flexbackup-help] flexbackup error
(Apologies for lack of reference headers -- I've just joined the list
and my email software hasn't seen the above threads.)
I'm experiencing a problem which sounds similar to Andrew Schein's. My
home directory contains a 'directory' called .gvfs, of zero bytes; when
I ask flexbackup to back up /home (sudo flexbackup -set home), it starts
creating a .tar.gz file, does about 100 MB, then stops and deletes
the .tar.gz file. And in the log there's a similar 'find' error:
=== START EXTRACT ==
cd "/home" && /tmp/flexbackup.11443.venus/collectexit.11443.sh find . \
-depth -xdev ! -type s ! -regex ".*/[Cc]ache/.*" ! -regex ".*~"$ \

------------------------------------------------------------
find: ./robert/.gvfs: Permission denied
=== END OF EXTRACT ===
I'm running gNewSense 2.1 "Deltah" (based on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS--"Hardy").
I keep trying to add a $prune line for /home, but perhaps my regexp
syntax could be improved:
$prune{'/home'} = ".gvfs";
$prune{'/home'} = "robert/.gvfs";
$prune{'/home'} = "robert/\.gvfs";
$prune{'/home'} = "\.*\\.gvfs";
None of these prevent 'find' from erroring on that file.
Can I "prune" my way out of this?
Any advice gratefully received :-)
Thank you very much,
Robert
