I got this error when my incremental backups were empty. I would browse the backup and get this error in the gui but not in Apache logs. The incremental backups were empty because my incremental command was wrong(missing N flag). I troubleshoot this by checking the backups at the command line with Du. Hope that helps. Sent from my phone. Please pardon my brevity, -------------------- Daniel, Thank you for your reply. I think that shed some light on things. I tried to restore the file using the most recent FULL backup (to insure that it really was there). It failed but the message changed a bit:
Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root fichiers00 env LC_ALL=C sudo /bin/tar -x -p --numeric-owner --same-owner -v -f - -C /home Running: /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate -h localhost -n 834 -s /home -t -r /leidav -p /leidav/ /leidav/zlink.txt Xfer PIDs are now 22283,22284 tarCreate: Done: 1 files, 257 bytes, 0 dirs, 0 specials, 0 errors Tar exited with error 65280 () status restore failed: Tar exited with error 65280 () status Conclusion - probably my tarCreate step was in fact an empty incremental and I just didn't understand that it shows the file while browsing the incremental backup in the web interface even if the file is not IN that particular backup but only exists in a FULL backup (confusing but at least I understand more now). So now I'll try and focus on why my tar command is failing (and I know there are other posts in the forum dealing with that). I'm going to call this specific question solved.
