I know people are tired of talking about this error from the responses I've seen on google when researching it but it cropped up for me now.
I have been running successfully for quite some time under Ubuntu 11.04 and BackupPC 3.1.0. I back up an Ubuntu 11.04 server (named r4p17). Yesterday I added a windows client to using cygwin-rsync per the documentation. The backup worked fine. I changed nothing on r4p17 and nothing on the backuppc server configuration. Today I received an email... The following hosts had an error that is probably caused by a misconfiguration. Please fix these hosts: - 10.0.0.8 (No files dumped for share /) Regards, PC Backup Genie ...and the error in the log is... Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -n -l root 10.0.0.8 env LC_ALL=C /bin/tar -c -v -f - -C / --totals --exclude=./sys --exclude=./proc . full backup started for directory / Xfer PIDs are now 9123,9122 Tar exited with error 65280 () status tarExtract: Done: 0 errors, 0 filesExist, 0 sizeExist, 0 sizeExistComp, 0 filesTotal, 0 sizeTotal Got fatal error during xfer (No files dumped for share /) Backup aborted (No files dumped for share /) Not saving this as a partial backup since it has fewer files than the prior one (got 0 and 0 files versus 0) ...I'm not sure how adding a windows client affected backing up r4p17 and I'm not totally sure that is the reason but I am suspicious. Can anyone lend some insight on what to check? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA® Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now! http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list [email protected] List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
