I agree - almost every "newbie" that picks up BackupPC makes this mistake - the more experienced you are with old-school config files the MORE likely you are to assume changing this is all you need to do. A note in the docs and/or a link to the "how to change your TOP DIR" page would fix a huge percentage of installation failures.
Or just fixing it so changing the config file IS all you have to do :) Steve On Tue, Nov 24, 2009 at 5:40 PM, Tino Schwarze <[email protected]> wrote: > PS: Maybe there should be a prominent note just at the $Config{TopDir} > setting in config.pl?
