 |
|
i tried giving the hpn patches for openssh a go, and found out that i can no longer run backups from backuppc...
| Quote: |
2008-02-16 04:51:10 Started incr backup on localhost (pid=3795, share=/)
2008-02-16 04:51:50 Backup failed on localhost (Unexpected end of tar archive) |
if i start the backup by hand i get the same outcome... logging into the backuppc machine and running
| Quote: | | /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -n -l root localhost /usr/bin/env LC_ALL=C /bin/tar --one-file-system -c -v -f - -C / --totals . |
gives me a whack of continuous jibberish on the screen, so i guess ssh is running, but it looks like backuppc doesn't like something with hpn...
i can backup machines without USE=hpn, but not with...

2008-02-16 05:29:26 Finished incr backup on internal2
2008-02-16 05:29:26 Running BackupPC_link internal2 (pid=4396)
2008-02-16 05:33:47 Finished internal2 (BackupPC_link internal2) |
any ideas?
thanks in advance

| Try your ssh command on a machine without HPN and save the output to a file, then do the same for a machine with HPN. Does file report both of them as tar archives? Does the machine with the HPN patch send any strange headers? It may be printing some message that confuses backuppc, but which you did not see because it scrolls away due to the output from tar. |

nope, they both come back as tar archives...
edit: was perusing my logs...
| Quote: | Tar exited with error 65280 () status
tarExtract: BackupPC_tarExtact aborting (Unexpected end of tar archive)
Got fatal error during xfer (Unexpected end of tar archive)
Backup aborted (Unexpected end of tar archive)

whatever that means... i can backup this stuff by hand, why can't backuppc do it?
