Hi all! I experience quite a strange problem with Amanda on Cygwin: I do not get the index results of dumps. The backups go well (I can amrestore them without error) but the indexes are not generated (the index files on the server are 0 byte...) so I cannot amrecover them. This is not a firewall issue since I do not have any between my client and my server. This is also not a server index issue since I get all other indexes (all the other ones that are not with a Cygwin client).
The logs client-side say: --- cut here --- $ less sendbackup.20030611022216.debug sendbackup: debug 1 pid 2364 ruid 18 euid 18: start at Wed Jun 11 02:22:16 2003 /usr/local/amanda/libexec/sendbackup: version 2.4.4b1 [...] sendbackup-gnutar: time 0.063: /usr/local/amanda/libexec/runtar: pid 1224 sendbackup: time 0.079: started index creator: "/usr/bin/tar -tf - 2>/dev/null |sed -e 's/^\.//'" sendbackup: time 2452.293: 53: size(|): Total bytes written: 3049789440 (2.8GB, 1.2MB/s) sendbackup: time 2452.350: index created successfully sendbackup: time 2452.444: pid 234 finish time Wed Jun 11 03:03:08 2003 --- cut here --- So apparently no problem? I have tested manually the "tar -t" command to see if its output was amindexd compliant (I suspected Cygwin proprietary problems), but it is OK. I have a 2.4.4b1 client and a 2.4.3 server. Anyone has an idea?
