I don't think the problems that I ran into with qtp-restore actually have anything to do with CentOS6 x64 as they seem to be typos within the script but I'm mentioning the platform just in case. The server was set up using Dan's CentOS6 script a few months ago. I've just finally gotten around to copying the live server's info over for final testing prior to going live with the new server and discovered the issues with qtp-restore.
After I got my backup file in the right place and ran the script, I ended up with some files missing. I couldn't login to Squirrelmail (still not resolved - looks like it's IMAP-related as can't connect to IMAP via client either - switching to Dovecot and we'll see if that resolves the problem) so I started poking around its (Squirrelmail's) config, then discovered the missing plugins. So I started investigating, realized that while they *were* part of the backup files, they hadn't been restored. So I started going through the qtp-restore script line-by-line. I discovered that, pretty much wherever there was a tar command, there were mistakes. For example, if the --directory option was used, there was a space rather than an = between --directory and the directory that it was supposed to restore to, while a lot of the other options (such as xjvf) were missing the leading - and so were throwing an error instead of restoring. Once I edited the script to correct the tar commands, it seems to have properly restored - I'm not missing any files anymore, at any rate - though I still don't have IMAP/Squirrelmail working, so we'll see...). -- Best regards, Diana mailto:dcal...@essexcountylibrary.ca --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: qmailtoaster-list-unsubscr...@qmailtoaster.com For additional commands, e-mail: qmailtoaster-list-h...@qmailtoaster.com
