Upgrade to the v1.5.0 alpha version, at: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/BackupPC-1.5.0alpha4.tar.gz You will find a variety of restore options when you browse a backup. Craig |

I don't know. Please include the exact command that was executed (from XferLOG) and the exact errors that were printed. What version of tar do you have (tar --version)? Craig |

In v1.5.0 I check the exit status of tar, while in 1.4.0 I do not. I guess I should go back to the 1.4.0 behaviour and ignore the exit status? Anyhow, in v1.5.0alpha4 just comment out line 212 of lib/BackupPC/Xfer/Tar.pm: if ( !close($t->{pipeTar}) ) { $t->{tarOut} .= "Tar exited with error $!,$? status\n"; $t->{xferOK} = 0; # <--- comment out this line } Also, you should not backup /proc. To do this add "./proc" to $Conf{BackupFilesExclude}: $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = "./proc"; Craig |

I just installed this version. Indeed there s some nice way to do the restore. THe problem is that i can't backup anymore.
