Hi,
I have been successfully running backuppc on an archlinux server for a
couple of months. Since the last update of the arch package I am no
longer able to access the web GUI. when trying to load the
`BackupPC_Admin` page I get the message below:
Error: Wrong user: my userid is 33, instead of 126(backuppc)
This script needs to run as the user specified in $Conf{BackupPCUser},
which is set to backuppc.
This is an installation problem. If you are using mod_perl then it
appears that Apache is not running as user backuppc. If you are not
using mod_perl, then most like setuid is not working properly on
BackupPC_Admin. Check the permissions on
/usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin and look at the documentation.
I verified the rights on the file:
-rwsrwxr-- 1 backuppc backuppc 3.9K Dec 10 12:05 BackupPC_Admin
and the cgi-bin folder is owned by root:root but has (r-x) rights for
others.
My kernel is 4.14.5-1-ARCH. There are no errors in
/var/log/httpd/errors_log.
I read the comment in the documentation about setuid emulation not being
supported on many systems but it worked until the last backuppc update
and perl has not been updated since september.
Thanks for your help!
