__And I'm still getting the internal error in the GUI. I don't

Is there any way to roll back to my previous version of BackupPC
please?
-------------------------
Moving from an installation package to a source-based install can be a
bit of a trial, depending on how much the norms of that distro and
packaging system deviate from the tarball. Version 4 is a fairly
dramatic leap as well, which complicates things further.
First, though, I'll address your question and give you the good news:
since you never actually launched BackupPC 4, your repository is instact
and in the expected location for your distro. Therefore, to revert to
the previous version, you need only delete the tarball's files, and
install the distro's version.
N.B. preserve your config.pl and return it to its original location, as
your distro may assume it is a new installation and do god-knows-what to
your config.pl. Some are kinder than others.

The SCGI question is a bit harder to answer without knowing what other
choices you've made. Since I have set up SCGI, I match the port to what
I have set up within Apache... which can be anything, as long as the
number in Apache and in config.pl are the same. If I had not set up
SCGI, I'd set it to -1.
