launchd is no fun. :( Can you check the file at /Users/amar/Library/Logs/tarsnap-gui.log and see if there are any clues? And, as per previous mail, can you please use something like Launch Control app to confirm that the tarsnap-gui job is both 'loaded' *and* 'enabled'? (launchd distinguishes between loaded and enabled, and I think jobs need to be both.) A graphical interface to launchd should also allow you to 'run' the job, and it will report any errors, or log them to the log file, above.
