You hit the nail right on the head here :) the explanation in the config.pl 
file should be a little more descriptive so ppl - like me :) - don't get it 
wrong. Something like:

# Examples:
# $Conf{CgiImageDir} = '/usr/local/apache/htdocs/BackupPC';
# to access http://www.example.com/BackupPC
# $Conf{CgiImageDir} = '';
# to access http://backuppc.example.com/

Maybe this can be added by the authors?

Regards,

Michael.

I'm guessing that you didn't set up something with the Backup PC images
directory correctly.  Check $Conf{CgiImageDir} =
'/var/www/backuppc/htdocs/BackupPC/'; (that's just an example of how I set
it up on my machine, but this should point to the location on the file
system where the actual .gif images for Backup PC are stored.  Also, check
$Conf{CgiImageDirURL} = '/BackupPC'; (again, that's just an example of how
it's set up on my machine, but it should be the / after
http://backupServerName where you can access the files.  Also, check the
httpd.conf file for permissions problems with the directory that contains
the images...

what linux distro are you using?
what's the version of BackupPC you're installing?

Debian Linux has a package for it that makes installation trivial. If you'd
like a quick experiment and example of how it can work; my advice would be
to use Knoppix to try it out. Knoppix is debian-based; and you can actually
install packages to the ramdrive (tho they'll be lost at the next reboot).
Alternatively, you can install knoppix to the hard drive of some computer
(a much better option), and do an 'apt-get install backuppc'. that'll
install it and do almost all of the server-side configuration, and give you
an example localhost backup file.

only takes a little while to try it out that way; and if you insist on
installing backuppc to another machine, it will at least give you a working
example you can look at.

2006-12-18 Thread Michael Mansour
Hi, 

I'm brand new to BackupPC and have gone through all the docs for 
configuration. 

I'm upto the bit where I've made the mod_perl cgi-bin work, but the webpage 
produced has a white background with the top left icon missing (the one 
which links to http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/ 

Going to the properties of this image takes me to: 

http://logo.gif/ 

Where can I check/set the web path correctly here? 

The web page I see from the cgi script looks nothing like the sample screens 
on the backuppc sourceforge site. 

Thanks. 

Michael.
