Thanks Dan,
after fiddling a bit with strace (available as option on my synology) I found
the problem.
Problem is I installed with "--no-fhs" and in this condition install process
(configure.pl) and Lib.pm completely disregard whatever I define as confdir and force it to be
"$topDir/conf" (see: Lib.pm#126).
I see this as a bug.
Same behavior seems present in LogDir definition (next line).
Did I miss something?
What is the right way to report such bugs? (if this indeed is a bug).
Thanks
Mauro

if your synology has strace, try
strace -e trace=file -o /tmp/trace.out /blah/blah/blah/BackupPC -d
that will show you all file access attempts by the script. Alternately, search
through the installed source to see where it is looking for config.pl.
This seems unlikely, but also check for selinux failures.
both strace & selinux presume your synology is running linux - if not, well,
those won't work.

Thanks Dan,
I have a config.pl:
backuppc@syno0:~/BackupPC/conf$ ls -la
total 96
drwxr-x--- 2 backuppc users 4096 Mar 13 12:31 .
drwxr-xr-x 9 backuppc users 4096 Mar 13 12:39 ..
-rw-r----- 1 backuppc users 85652 Mar 13 12:31 config.pl
-rw-r--r-- 1 backuppc users 2214 Mar 13 12:31 hosts
athough I did not (yet) configure it in any way (I plan to do it from the web
IF) it already contains the
$Conf{Language} = 'en';
line.
My guess is BackupPC is unable to find (or read) config.pl, but I can't
understand why.
What should I check?
Any pointer welcome.
Regards
Mauro

I know nothing about a synology nas, but i found this in the source:
Lib.pm: return "No language setting" if (
!defined($bpc->{Conf}{Language}) );
My config.pl file has
$Conf{Language} = 'en';
I wonder if you aren't getting a config.pl file at all, perhaps the source
installation doesn't give you one, just an example with a different name that
you are supposed to customize.
hope this helps.
