Re: [BackupPC-users] backuppc errors

2021-03-31 Thread Norman Goldstein 
I found your errors.txt file in the archives -- didn't seem to make it 
to my own email client (weird).


Is it correct that tar is supposed to be getting 238 GB to deal with?  
The action seems to be happening in BackupPC_tarExtract . Maybe you can 
find out what its command line is, and try the same command line, manually.


Other than that, I don't know how to track this down.  Sorry for that.

Good luck,
Norm

Did you check the folder and file are there:

I have BackupPC backing up a Linux client and it appears to only
back up certain files.  The pattern seems to be that if the
directory has permissions of -rw-r--r-- BackupPC can enter, read
the files and back them up correctly, but if the directory has
permissions of drwx-- it creates that directory but cannot
enter and read the files within it.

The error log file shows multiple lines of:
Remote[1]: rsync: opendir "/directory/with/files" failed:
Permission denied (13)

Other parts of the filesystem are being backed up correctly it
appears.  The BackupPC automatically connects as the user
BackupPC on the client and that backupPC user has the ability to
run rsync as root. On the client I have:

$ cat /etc/sudoers.d/backuppc giving:
backuppc ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rsync
backuppc ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/whoami  #added this one for debugging

From BackupPC running the command:
ssh -l backuppc client_IP "whoami"
returns backuppc

and running the command
ssh -l backuppc client_IP "sudo whoami"
returns root

so it seems to be working correctly.

In the client config file on BackupPC, variable is set as:
RsyncClientCmd = "$sshPath -q -x -l backuppc $host $rsyncPath
$argList+"


Aren't you missing a sudo somewhere in the command? not sure how
you have defined rsyncPath, but that looks like it could be the issue.

Maybe you could post the logs which will show the actual commands
being run after variable expansion.

Regards,
Adam


I am not sure if there should be a sudo somewhere or how that works 
unfortunately - I do not understand this very well.  rsyncClientPath 
is defined as: /usr/bin/rsync  It appears rsync is working since I am 
getting part of the drive backed up, just not certain folders.


The Xferlog file shows:

Contents of file /var/lib/backuppc/pc/client_IP/XferLOG.0.z, modified 
2021-03-28 21:25:06


full backup started for directory /
Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l backuppc client_IP /usr/bin/rsync 
--server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links 
--hard-links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive --ignore-times . /



You are definitely missing an "sudo" in there. If you see what you have, 
you are calling ssh, with some flags "-q -x", using the account backuppc 
(-l backuppc), to login to the remove machine "client_IP" and once 
logged in running /usr/bin/rsync with some options  etc.



ssh -l backuppc client_IP "whoami"
This is the same example you posted above, as you can see, it is running 
as the user backuppc



ssh -l backuppc client_IP "sudo whoami"
As you can see, adding the "sudo" means you are going to end up running 
the command as root.



RsyncClientCmd = "$sshPath -q -x -l backuppc $host $rsyncPath $argList+"

I would suggest changing this to:

RsyncClientCmd = "$sshPath -q -x -l backuppc $host /usr/bin/sudo 
$rsyncPath $argList+"


Assuming your sudo is in /usr/bin/sudo. To check, login and run:

which sudo

Pretty sure that should solve the permissions problem, although I don't 
use sudo with backuppc, so there could be other issues that I'm not 
aware of.

Adam

[BackupPC-users] BackupPC web interface error

2021-03-31 Thread SRIRAM--- via BackupPC-users 
Dear team, 

 

I have upgraded backuppc from 4.3.2 to 4.4.0

backuppc started but on the Web Interface I get

 

Error: Unable to connect to BackupPC server

 

This CGI script (/BackupPC_Admin) is unable to connect to the BackupPC server 
on backuppc port -1.

The error was: unix connect to /var/run/BackupPC/BackupPC.sock: No such file or

Perhaps the BackupPC server is not running or there is a configuration error. 
Please report this to your Sys Admin.
