Hello, I'm trying to use bobs to backup 2 folders exported by nfs : /home/cvsroot and /home/bugs All works great for the first directory, but i can't see files of the se= cond directory with the web interface. I suspect the problem is related to the files'rights : Files in /home/bugs have the following rights : [root@machine-cvs root]# ll /home/bugs total 21000 -rw-r----- 1 mysql mysql 8868 jui 4 2003 attachments.frm -rw-r----- 1 mysql mysql 20388072 sep 27 11:09 attachments.MYD -rw-r----- 1 mysql mysql 10240 sep 27 11:09 attachments.MYI .... The backup seem's to be ok : sylvain@pasteque bobs $ ll /var/bobsdata/current/machine-cvs/bugzilla total 21000 -rw-r----- 1 76 76 8868 jui 4 2003 attachments.frm -rw-r----- 1 76 76 20388072 sep 27 11:09 attachments.MYD -rw-r----- 1 76 76 10240 sep 27 11:09 attachments.MYI ... machine-cvs contains directory i want to backup pasteque is the machine on which bobs is installed. Do the backuped files and dir have to be readable by apache to appear in = the web interface ? Have I to declare user and group mysql with uid and gid 7= 6 on the machine with bobs ? thanks for your help ! sylvain |

Try this from the command line: echo '<?php echo crypt("admin"); ?>' | php It should output something like this: Content-type: text/html $1$SpbcC3BW$pqKt2d8yXZWygujoYP.K9. Perhaps it's not finding php in your path? Also, if your using the cvs version, there is a configure option (type ./configure --help) to allow you to specify the httpd user id, so you don't have to change the configure source. Cheers, Joe |

Hi, I have a problem with the admin pass that it doesnt work. Simply the login dont accept the admin pass. In the installation I found two problem: 1) the configure dont find the apache2 user so that I substituted the line 1713 with this: if PSOUTPUT=$(ps -C apache2 -o user,rgroup,pid,ucomm --sort pid); then and then it seems work. 2) but in the configure log I see a: checking for web server user id... www-data ./configure: line 1: php: command not found configure: creating ./config.status anyway I have installed bobs but at login it doesnt login with admin pass.

I agree with the reporting ideas, but I have a dilemma. Where I work I am responsible for many systems being backed up. Some are backed up to bobs, others to tape, some using rsync mirrors, and a couple used tar/dump/ftp/cron jobs. The problem with monitoring backups with email reporting is this: o If the backup works you get an email. Fine. o If it doesn't work you should still get an email that it didn't work. Ok, fine. o The catch is that invariably *something* will go wrong that isn't planned, whether it's the software, a power outage, or whatever. Then you don't get any email. It's terribly hard to notice there is a problem because of an email you didn't get, especially when you have many systems to monitor. I still think the email reporting is a good idea, it's just not a reliable solution for ensuring backups are running, regardless of the system or software. Joe |

Hallo Jochen! I think, it is a good hack for BOBS. But I would prefere a summarized report for the admin every day. For example: there are rsync errors for specific files but you never get informed about it. I just work on this. Manfred |

Hi Rene, Hi Joe, hi folks, one of my clients has bobs server running, and as you know I like. Today I have come across the problem of security, concerning, that the system (bobs server) is still alive. This is a great problem for me. Because as this company does not have an administration or something, I let the system run and do not control it every day. Know I figured out that backup system was dead for a long time. As I - shame on me - figured out, it occured by a stresstest of mine, producing new backups every 5 minutes. So the system did not make backups for a couple of .... ( that is my secret ;o) ). To solve this, I think it would be nice, to do some simple email reporting. I hacked this on bobs 0.6.0 or 0.6.1 I suppose. I am not firm to the new version, where check_loop runs as a service as I could see in the lists. So here are my changings I did on 0.6.x < 0.6.2 1. Hacked check_loop: # new part, to be informed when system stucks !! ADMIN_EMAIL=j.m...@om... # seconds that are o.k. since last action in SECONDS # we use 7 days here = MAX_NO_ACTION=604800 # for testing #MAX_NO_ACTION=4 # check if CMDLOOP_DIR"last_run" if [ -f "$CMDLOOP_DIR""/last_run" ]; then LASTRUN=$(cat $CMDLOOP_DIR"/last_run") # security option if [ "$LASTRUN" = "" ]; then LASTRUN=0; fi CURRENT_TIME=$(date +"%s") # calculate diff let DIFF_TIME=$CURRENT_TIME-$LASTRUN if [ $DIFF_TIME -gt $MAX_NO_ACTION ]; then echo "No action for too long" >> /var/log/bobs echo "ERRORREPORT" | mail -s "[BOBS] No action for too long" $ADMIN_MAIL fi else echo "Sorry, does not exits yet"; fi if [ "$CMDLOOP_PID" == "" ] then 2. Hacked cmdloop if [ -e $file ] then echo "Starting $file" # write current time to last_run date +"%s" > $PWD"/last_run" # ${file##*.} resolves to the extension of the file name # File name 'cmd.1048828727.bash' resolves to just 'bash' # See 'parameter expansion' in 'info bash' ${file##*.} $file $DELCMD $file echo "Finished $file" else continue fi done That is it... The thing that can occur, that the system hangs in a cmd... - execution - I believe. So what do you think of it ? Cheers Jochen Jochen Metzger j.m...@om... http://hosting.omatix.de |

Click on "Edit Excludes" to modify the list. See the 'rsync' man page, especially the section 'EXCLUDE PATTERNS'. If there are a lot of directories to exlude, you may be able to exclude them all with a '-' and include the one you want with a '+'. Something like this might work, though I haven't tried it: + /share-i-want-to-backup - * Cheers, Joe |

is there a way to back up a folder within a main share of the server..ie server/share/share-i-want-to-backup right now i can only manage to back up the server/share which eats up my disk space. I am using smb to access the servers for backup. Thanks, Andy |

Actual BOBS cannot run with gdbm (gdbm-1.8.3-119), because gdbm does not allow the following insert: dba_insert( "", "range:0:1800|", $id ); I get FALSE back and the record is inserted, but without the value. I think, it was not a good idea to use empty keys. Do not use gdbm with BOBS. Manfred |

Hello, I do make very much changes to bobs. Changes are mainly for more security= ,=20 more usability and for remote use. I only use rsync for backup and restor= e. I reduce the number of files and did make a redesign of the GUI and some = work=20 for international use. How can I give the new system back to the community? I have to make some = more=20 documentation, so I need two weeks until I can give it.
