just installed EPEL BackupPC-4.4.0-9.el9.x86_64 on an AlmaLinux release 9.4 kvm, merged changes into config.pl, and brought forward other .pl files from my working opensuse tumbleweed backuppc 4 server. systemctl start gives no errors, /var/log/BackupPC/LOG reports doing incr backups, manual run of /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_dump shows __bpc_progress_fileCnt__ count up to 164961, and "incr backup complete", but all that exists in each pc/<host> directory is an empty LOG.092024. i put selinux into permissive mode and restarted backupp but the results are still the same. no errors, just...nothing! what can be amiss?
My first guess - and it is just a guess - would be that either the BackupPC process isn't running as the right user (maybe 'backuppc'), or the permissions of the files or the directories containing them are incorrect. Other guesses would be that the configuration isn't quite like you think it is (are the files being written someplace else? I've seen that sort of thing when a distribution's maintainer gets a bit too creative to describe), or that you have a problem with mounts, but that's getting even deeper into the guesswork. -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/wiki Project: https://backuppc.github.io/backuppc/
