If memory serves, the crux of the issue was that smbclient (well, samba in
general) changed the way verbose output was handled. The tar errors
(unexpected end of file) resulted from a samba not reporting the same
number of files (specifically, reporting 0 files backed up as verbose
output was broke

I've hit my wits end on an issue with my backuppc instance. The system ran
fine, untouched, for many months. This is an ubuntu 16.0.4 system, running
backuppc 3.3.1, installed via apt. When accessing the index (or any other
pages), I get the following:
Error: Unable to connect to BackupPC server

What errors are you seeing? If it's the tar:712 error, that has been

Tom,
You may want to try mounting with the 'nolock' option. I had a similar
issue with a D-Link NAS. It's a quick and easy fix to try.

Thanks for the pointers. This event has furthered my belief that
software RAID is crap.

Hi,
I recently had a somewhat odd system failure (poorly configured software
RAID) that lead to a *very* old set of BackupPC config files being
loaded. On one windows machine (possibly more), the default SMB share
was reset to C$ instead of E$. The full count keep, plus the min keep
values were
What does df say about your backuppc server's partition usage? IIRC the
usage % is only calculated once a day. Is it possible that your backuppc
installation came across somebody's ripped DVD library / warez
collection / VM server and filled the pool?

I ran into something sorta similar. Is your pool stored on an NAS or NFS
share? In our case, RRDTool was unable to get a lock on files in the
pool over the share, and would hang and hang. Sometimes it would time
out, very rarely it would catch the page and load. Backuppc otherwise
