amgetconf: not found
Hello, Thank you for amanda! I have the following problem. I used to be using amanda ver. 2.5.1. However, I decided to upgrade it on one box. It is now version amanda-client-2.6.1_1,1 and amanda-server-2.6.1_1,1. Ever since the upgrade, I am not able to perform the backup. % /usr/local/sbin/amdump Backup2Disk amgetconf: not found I use FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE if that matters. Would you help me find out how I can solve this problem and resume backups? Thank you! -- Zbigniew Szalbot

Thank you! Is amgetconf installed? Is it in the same location as intended when it was compiled? amdump is a shell script, so this should be pretty easy for you to track down.

That can be a misleading error message that points to perl not available. If you do have amgetconf, and it is in the path, then do 'head amgetconf' and check and make sure the perl it's looking for is installed and working.

Hello, >> % /usr/local/sbin/amdump Backup2Disk >> amgetconf: not found > Is amgetconf installed? Is it in the same location as intended when It seems to me it isn't. $ locate amgetconf /usr/local/man/man8/amgetconf.8.gz $ whereis amgetconf amgetconf: /usr/local/man/man8/amgetconf.8.gz I am in the dark because it is a configuration that was previously done by someone else and I have not had a lot of expierience with amanda (it ran very well). Thank you! Zbigniew Szalbot

Perhaps amgetconf was accidentally removed? You may need to restore from a backup (which could be fun if other parts of Amanda have been deleted) or reinstall.

Thank you for all your suggestions! Just want to let you know that I reinstalled the amanda-client port (I am on a FreeBSD) and amgetconf is now working as expected. Backups resumed! :) Ufff... you can imagine that this makes me happy :) Thank you! Zbigniew Szalbot

IIRC I have seen an amanda client rpm package which only included the amgetconf manpage, and nothing else with that name. Gerrit
