amgetconf: not found

2009-03-17 Thread Zbigniew Szalbot
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!

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.

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!

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!

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

I had the same problem on Feb 22nd, posted the FreeBSD's port
maintainer's reply to the list:
