Hi, first of all: it's *not* an error in BackupPC. I understand that the subject line was meant to be plain uninformative, probably wanting to be ignored, but that failed.

Actually, that was my first thought too, and although it's correct, it's not the current problem. ssh-askpass -- which should never be called -- is complaining about an incorrect locale setting. Put differently: passwordless ssh logins are not working and $DISPLAY is set (which should never be the case in the BackupPC daemon's environment - true, ssh-askpass is *not* complaining about a failed X11 connection, which probably means someone is running an X server as the backuppc user, but, for some obscure reason, I doubt that is the intended setup). Hope that helps. Regards, Holger ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
