[rdiff-backup-users] Crash on incremental backup after regression

2010-11-26 Thread Luciano Leveroni
Hi,

Im using rdiff-backup version 1.3.3 on a Windows 2000 server here and the
software is crashing on performing a backup. As the previous backups have
failed, rdiff-backup makes a regression which seems successful and the, on
making the backup itself, the script crashes with the following output:

Re: [rdiff-backup-users] Crash on incremental backup after regression

2010-11-26 Thread Dominic Raferd
It looks to me as if the problem maybe relates to the special characters 
in the filenames '\xf3' and similar. And I see at the bottom mention of 
a win_acl. My suggestions are:


- try using option --override-chars-to-quote - or
- try using option --no-acls - or
- try rdiff-backup version 1.2.8. [1.3.3 is experimental.] - or
- rename the offending files

 Most of all, I'm wondering if there's an easy way to have a central

 data.

Well, did you look at SafeKeep?
http://safekeep.sourceforge.net/

It's based on a central server that contacts linux clients to backup
the data. It automatically handles LVM snapshots, DB dumps (for MySQL
and Postgresql), uses nice(1) and ionice(1) to avoid overloading the
clients and the server, and does everything over ssh for security.

One drawback is that it doesn't currently work for Windows clients,
but there's nothing in the design preventing it to do so.

You can certainly do this with a package such as (for Windows) TimeDicer
http://www.timedicer.co.uk. This uses rdiff-backup with ssh connection
managed by plink. But this is for 'push' backups - the clients contact
the server and send backups. Works well with a primary server on the
local network, and offsite mirror server for belt'n'braces protection.
