I get this error when trying, via the cgi interface, to run an archive on one

Error: Can't open/create ${EscHTML("$TopDir/pc/$hostDest/$reqFileName")}

The config file for the "archive" host looks like this:

$Conf{XferMethod} = 'archive';
$Conf{XferLogLevel} = 1;
$Conf{ArchiveDest} = '/tmp';

The permissions for the /tmp folder is: drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 2005-11-18 16:28 tmp

I get the same error when trying to archive the localhost (and I only have one 
client, and a local host configured...)

Btw, my config.pl files are located in /etc/backuppc/client.pl - not 
/var/lib/backuppc/pc/client
- The backup seems though to be working from the client.pl files in 
/etc/backuppc, so I dont see a point in moving them...
Should I move them?


I've also been wondering, why backuppc doesnt create an "archive" folder under 
/var/lib/backuppc/pc/?
- And since this is not the case, I'm not able to move the archive.pl file to 
this directory, as the documentation for backuppc states I should do...
(Running version 2.1.1-3, just for the record).

I usually create the client folders themselves, after I add them to the hosts file, and copy/create the config file in there. I then do a chown -R backuppc:backuppc newhost

HTH,
Alex
