Being a novice I hesitate to give advice but I had the same problem which I
solved by adding a link apache.conf to backuppc.conf as I found on this
site:
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/HowTo/BackupPC
Then restart apache.
Hope that helps

Just to report backup and close this
interface. I think I will give it a try "as is" and see what happens. I have
no data at risk anyway yet.

After experimenting with Backuppc and liking what I saw, I added a new 500GB
internal drive. Because of other hardware changes that I made I had to
reinstall the OS (Ubuntu 7.10). So Backupppc is not currently installed but
the new extra HD is fitted and mounted as /var/lib/backuppc. Having created

Thanks - that was it. What you said made sense when I thought about it. I
left out the share name from the exclude line and my first backup has just
completed!!

I am new to Linux but so far have got Ubuntu installed on a spare box and
added backuppc to perform a backup role for my two Windows machines.
Backuppc is running and starts a backup but fails because of lack of disk
space, the problem being large video files which I don't actually want to
backup.
