Re: [BackupPC-users] Backuppc problem with filenames

2011-08-25 Thread Jesper Haggren - NHL Data 

Hi Paul,

For your information I also have a server running latest version 3.2.1 
built from source  and it also works just fine.

Hi Jesper,
Thanks again for your response and your test results.
This certainly has me baffled.
I guess I'll try and re-install backuppc w/version 3.1 and see if that helps.
Regards,
Paul
  
  


Hi Paul,

Just tested it on one of my BackupPC servers.
Now mine is installed on Debian6 x64, and uses the stable backuppc
package (3.1.0) from the Debian repositories.

Result here:

This is a follow up post to the original issue.
I have done some additonal testing and now it seems that the issue is 
specifically related to either backuppc or the File::RsyncP module, as 
these are the two pieces I can not eliminate.
I have setup and successfully completed straight rsync file transfer 
from the winXP box to the Unbuntu (10.04) with no issue.  All files 
transferred with out any changes to the filename. I have scoured the 
various user forums for any related problems and aside from a few 
people who had issues relating to European character sets not 
translating properly (which I have eliminated as a possible solution) 
there are no issue being reported.  It seem sthat I am the only one to

Is anyone able to test this issue on their system and see if it is 
indeed common?

Hi Jesper,
Thanks for the reply, unfortunately this did not resolve the problem.  
I set the "unix charset =ISO8859-1" and then restarted the samba 
server, but to no avail.  I then tried changing the code page in 
BackupPC for rsyncd to cp850, which the samba documentation indicated 
would be required to match the iso8859-1 setting, but that also did 
not help.

Hi Paul,

In my experience you also need to set the Samba charset besides
the backuppc client charset when using backuppc over smb with
these special characters.
/
smb.conf:

...
[global]
unix charset =ISO8859-1
...

/
I have the same issue as you describe just with speciel danish
characters(æ, ø and å) and setting the charset in Samaba solves this.

Regards
Jesper


Hello,

I'm having an issue with backuppc, that I have not seen reported in 
any of the user lists.
I am using the latest versions of backupppc(3.2.1 on Ubuntu 10.04) and 
cygwin / rsyncd (1.7.9 / 3.08) on WinXP (SP3).

I am backing up a large directory of mp3 files ~6,000 files.
From all appearances the backup works fine:
-  The rsyncd.log shows each file being transferred with no errors.
-  The Backuppc log reports the successful completion of the backup 
indicating receipt of all ~6000 files

and the transfer of over 24GB.
But...when I browse the backup most of the files are not there!!
After some investigation I discovered that any file with a filename 
starting with "(", "-", or ")" are not being

copied to the disk...
Since a majority of my files begin with "(" they are not being 
reflected in the backuppc backup directory.

I have the $Conf{ClientCharset} option set to cp1252 for the WinXP config.
Has anyone seen anything like this before? Am I missing something obvious?
I hope I can resolve it without resorting changing 4000+ filenames...
Thanks in advance for any assistance,
Paul
