Kind regards, Matias No - don't remove it manually because there are some relating data anywhere. Probably you have a link from /bin/bash or /bin/sh to /bin/dash Check, and install if neccessary, /bin/bash and make sure that it is not linked to /bin/dash br Matthias -- Don't Panic -- LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.

Re: [BackupPC-users] No more bakup after last partial backup?
Hi Matias I haven't had any issues with declare myself running the script on centos 5. Looking at the script I see it suggests using typeset if you have problems with declare so that might help. I su to the backuppc user to run this script: su -s /bin/bash backuppc cheers On Wed, 05 Dec 2012 04:41:32 -0800 arcticeye backuppc-fo...@backupcentral.com wrote: Hi John, Thanks for your answer.

[BackupPC-users] No more bakup after last partial backup?
Hi everyone, Before anything, thanks for allowing me to suscribe and access to this beautiful comunity. I have a Debian 6 server with Samba. There are all user files under 3 directories shared using SMB. I have 2 bacuppc servers which every night make backups of these shared directories. Last week I had to reinstall the Linux server because of a fail in the hard disk. Once I did, backuppc tried to do backup of the files. The behavior of the 2 servers is estrange. The 2 of them did a last partial backup but took a lot of time and never reach to complete a full or incremental. Since then each time i try to maually do backup they can be like 24 hours and never end doing the backup. No error log... so that seems very strange but backups are not finally done. I could delete the host from backuppc and re create it and then reconfigure.. but last time i did it all older backups and its incrementals were also automatically deleted. Could you help me on this in some way? Do you need some extra information? Thank you very much for you time Kind regards, Matias +-- |This was sent by arctic...@gmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +-- -- LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.

Could you help me on this in some way? Do you need some extra information? Thank you very much for you time I have had issues like this before and have resolved them by removing the partial backup using the script from http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/backuppc/index.php?title=How_to_delete_backups Copy the script to your local bin directory and then run it like so: /usr/local/bin/remove_old_backups.sh -c server_name -d 326 (or whatever the number of your partial backup is) Once the partial backup has been deleted try running a full backup again and see if that completes successfully.
