InstallDir on my system = /usr/share/backuppc In /usr/share/backuppc/bin are various files including: BackupPC_archive (Note not BackupPC_archiveStart) BackupPC_archiveHost
The on-line docs at Sourceforge do not correspond with my Ubuntu 8.04-Server LTS distribution. At the command line, using the full path, both can be started. From the CGI it appears that BackupPC_archiveHost is started with the following command: $Installdir/bin/BackupPC_archiveHost $tarCreatePath $splitpath $parpath $host $backupnumber $compression $compext $splitsize $archiveloc $parfile * Still, it doesn't explain why it it fails to run when scheduled or fails to create a log entry, but works when started manually using the button in the CGI and creates the log entries.
