[BackupPC-users] BackupPC_tarExtract exited with fail status 256

[Tim E. <tk...@tk...>]

I have previously reported pretty regular SMB backup failures with the 
above error before.  Some indications on the list were that this was 
thought to have been fixed in 4.1.3.

However, I'm still seeing it on around half of my backups, both 
incrementals and fulls.  They run for a few minutes over 24 hours, and 
are then killed and restarted.  Often, they fail a second or even third 
consecutive time.  Once in a while, backups succeed--incrementals in 
just a few minutes.

Server is running Fedora 25 (Linux osprey 4.11.6-201.fc25.x86_64 #1 SMP 
Tue Jun 20 20:21:11 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux).  BackupPC 
is BackupPC-4.1.3-1.fc25.x86_64, as packaged in the Hobbes repo.

Is there any more info I can provide?  Thanks.
