[BackupPC-users] What happened to the part of the Wiki with user-contributed utilities?
I was trying to add updated versions of my routines (e.g., BackupPC_deleteFile, BackupPC_fixLinks) to the user contribution portion of the Wiki and was not able to find it. Not sure if I'm looking in the wrong place (http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/backuppc/index.php?title=Main_Page#Welcome_to_the_BackupPC_Wiki.21) or if that area of the Wiki has moved or been eliminated.

[BackupPC-users] Restore via rsync on Vista client
Hello all! I have had a disk crash and now I need to restore my files. Restoring through as a ZIP-file file works fine, but I'm also interested in restoring directly with rsync, but I can't get it to work. All that is created is an empty folder where I choosed to restore the files. The log says all is fine: 2009-10-07 20:21:51 restore started below directory erikdata to host eddie http://kakrafoon.dyndns.org/backuppc/index.cgi?host=eddie 2009-10-07 20:22:11 restore 1 complete (80 files, 10326140 bytes, 0 dirs, 0 xferErrs) My setup: Backuppc 3.0.0 on Ubuntu 8.04 Client is Windows Vista with Deltacopy 1.3 for rsync functions. I have looked into the rights for the Deltacopy service running on the client. It's running as the local system, and the user SYSTEM has all rights on the created folder. My guess is that this should be sufficient. Any thoughts, hints, solutions? Thanks and kind regards /Erik -- Come build with us!

I seem to remember a thread from back in early August with Craig and others claiming that they were in the process of transferring over the Wiki from Sourceforge to MediaWiki. Craig (and maybe others) mentioned that they had full recent backup copies so the material should still exist. So, I guess I am asking whether the maintainer(s) of the Wiki are aware of the problem and if so is there a solution in progress? If not, what do we need to do to restore the wiki? Given the number of FAQ posts that take up a good portion of the bandwidth of this group, it seems like we would all be served by having the wiki restored. -- Come build with us!

I think the problem is that I don't have authoring or editing permissions (or at least so it said when I attempted to edit the source page). that remains true when you log in (I actually managed to create an account - my fault, not sourceforge's). In case anyone was wondering, to edit a page, you click on view source. Well, maybe that changes to edit once you have permission ... But I've found the navigation, from where you should be able to reach most wiki pages (there are some listed as orphaned).

Given the number of FAQ posts that take up a good portion of the bandwidth of this group, it seems like we would all be served by having the wiki restored. I agree. I'm sorry I haven't done anything about this. Unfortunately SF didn't do a very good job with their automatic transition, and I'm a complete neophyte when it comes to MediaWiki. Currently I'm the only MediaWiki admin (by default, not by design :)). I don't think it's possible to open editing to everyone on MediaWiki with the way that SF has installed it, based on this ticket: https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/sourceforge/ticket/3638 At a minimum you need an SF account, and then editing permission needs to be added using the MediaWiki admin interface. I'm happy to add MediaWiki admin privileges to a couple of motivated contributors (I just added Holger), who can then in turn add editing permission to any SF user who requests it. Please send me your requests off list. It would be really great if we could repair (and then improve) the wiki. Craig -- Come build with us!
