[Nssbackup-team] [Bug 550261] Re: After upgrade to Lucid backups cannot be started through the GUI

[Vish]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: sbackup
  
- After upgrade to Lucid backups cannot be started through the GUI
+ Steps to reproduce:
  
- TEST CASE:
- On a fully up-to-date Lucid Sbackup starts the Backup properties dialogue. 
Settings are OK and saved. When I start the Backup Now option I get the popup 
stating that the backup process has started. However, no backup job is started 
(goes directly into Zombie state).
+ 1: Install Simple backup from Software Centre
+  [search "Backup", Simple Backup Config and Simple Backup Restore are listed 
there, installing *-config installs both.]
+ 2: Select from System > Administration > Simple Backup Config
+ 3: Setup the config/use existing config
+ 4: Select "Backup Now"
+ 
+ A dialogue window pops up mentioning :
+ 
+ "A backup run is initiated in the background. The process id is: ."
+ 
+ Expected:
+ System backup is started and backup is done
+ 
+ What happens:
+ - No backup occurs.
+ 
+ TEST CASE:On a fully up-to-date Lucid Sbackup starts the Backup
+ properties dialogue. Settings are OK and saved. When I start the Backup
+ Now option I get the popup stating that the backup process has started.
+ However, no backup job is started (goes directly into Zombie state).
  
  Confirmed for 32bit and 64bit Lucid versions.
  
- Regression potential:
- No potential for regression since the worst case is already present (not 
running on Lucid).
+ Regression potential:No potential for regression since the worst case is
+ already present (not running on Lucid).
  
  course of action for Lucid:
  incorporate fix from stable branch

It's true, the method Lluis mentioned (from http://ubuntu-
virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9477790#post9477790)  works
great!  It's a simple change to a python script and it works as
expected.  Well done.  Thanks Canonical for another bug not fixed!!!

Sincerely,
John Zollo

[Frank R. Gross]

Lars, use the GUI to configure what is to be stored and where etc., and
don't forget to save your settings (just hit the button). Then you open
a console/terminal and start a backup by typing

#sudo sbackupd

and hitting enter. Your're asked for your password. That's all. The
program will read the settings which you previously set using the GUI
and perform the backup.

HTH, Frank

[Nssbackup-team] [Bug 550261] Re: After upgrade to Lucid backups cannot be started through the GUI

[Jean-Peer Lorenz]

Note from the Not So Simple Backup-Team (maintainers of the successor of
sbackup and somehow in charge for sbackup):

Our resources are very limited and we concentrate on Nssbackup rather
the old-fashioned Sbackup. Unfortunately, it's quite difficult to get a
fix for this bug into Lucid or to push nssbackup into the repositories.
I'm unexperienced in the whole stable packaging and SRU process, so if
anybody could help with the SRU process - don't hesitate.

Simple Backup is no longer maintained by its original developer.
However, there is an advanced successor of Simple Backup: the Not So
Simple Backup Suite which is actively developed. We've just released a
stable version. If you want to use an application like Simple Backup in
Lucid, please try nssbackup instead. The project is located here:
https://launchpad.net/nssbackup. The PPA providing the latest version
can be found here: https://edge.launchpad.net/~nssbackup-
team/+archive/ppa.

HTH and sorry for any inconvenience.
Jean-Peer (member of the nssbackup team)

[lars]

Thanks for the message.
Because I am a less-experienced user, perhaps you could state that more
fully. In the system window I run those commands. Then what? How to I tell
it what to retrieve and where to put it etc, all the stuff specified in the
GUI interface?
