Hello,
I installed BOBS yesterday and like it very much, thank you. However, I
am having problems doing a restore. The error I am receiving after
clicking on restore is :
Warning:
dba_open(/backups/bobsdata/current/process/session/1247937204.restore.dirind
ex.db,n): Driver initialization failed for handler: db3:
Unable to establish lock (database file already open) in
/var/www/html/bobs/inc/class_db.php on line 187
I am running Redhat Linux, kernel version 2.4.18-3. PHP version is 4.3.8.
DB3 version is db3-3.3.11-6. I have tried both bobs-0.6.2 and most
recent cvs, am now using cvs. The system check completes without errors.
After browsing through mailing lists I noticed the entry about changing "c"
to "n" for the dba_open parameter and tried that for kicks, same error. I am
using rsync over ssh and nfs for restore, seems to be mounting the share
fine and copies the file to restore_files, but it doesn't update the Browse
Current page. Please let me know if I can provide any more info.
Thank you,
Paul Hamby

Hello Joe, thank you for your answer. I will try it in this way for testing, but because I want to install this together with many of my customers, I want to make it more automatic. Regards Manfred |

Create a backup definition for both the LAN host/share and the internet host/share name. Do the initial backup on the LAN. Rename the /var/bobsdata/current/host/share from the LAN names to the internet names. Do the same for /var/bobsdata/incremental/host/share. Also rename the .db and .ser in both directories to the internet share name. Then enable the internet backup definition. I haven't tried it, but I can't think of why it wouldn't work. Joe |

Hello, I want to make the initial synchronisation between backup-server and productivity-server with a network-connection from internal network. But the later update synchronisation will be done via internet-connection. The problem is, that the host and share-names are different. Where is the point in the sources to make changes? Would be nice, if you can give me an tip. The changes I give back to all. Manfred |

Hi Davin I'm CC'ing the bob...@li... > --being able to change, through the web interface, where files will be backed up. That is on my wishlist as well, but it is a fairly complicated job which requires modifying a lot of the files. > > --being able to compress files as they're backed up. Compression of the 'incremental' files shouldn't be too hard, but the 'current' files would have to be on a filesystem with compression since it needs access to the uncompressed files to compare it to the active files on the remote server. > > --having more detailed, real time status info (for instance what files are being backup up at a particular moment; an estimate of how long backup/restore will take; more detailed info on errors). I don't know why you would want that, but basically that would be a 'tail -f /var/log/bobs.log' in the browser. I think Joe is implementing this as an admin feature. I only want my users to be able to restore files they lost and not much more since that is not what their jobs is. Bobs is a service to the user, not a tool. Bobs is a tool to the administrator. Bobs was created because I didn't want to be interrupted in my work every time a user needed a file on some tapebackup. > Anyhow, I think it's a project with excellent potential and I'd like to be a contributor. I have beginning skills in PHP and intermediate skills with shell scripts and HTML/CSS. I'd really like to work on an interface overhaul--no offense, but I think it could use some improvement. I know that it's an admin tool, but I think it would be nice (down the road sometime) to allow them to apply different themes (skins) to the interface. If you can separate the html from the code and make it skinable that would be great. My only concern with the interface was that it should be easy to use and work in all browsers. It isn't perfect but good enough. If you can make it smoother and more user friendly that would be great. Cheers Rene |

It would require an extra user list to authenticate against. Maybe you should consider have multiple installs of bobs. One for each user. Modify the backup cron jobs to fit. Cheers Rene |

Bobs stores the full "current" backup and incrementals. The rest of your

The crypted volumes would be up to you. You could create links where

bobs is initiated from the server. It can use rsync over ssh but it
needs a route to the client.

The major problem I see is bobs backups are initiated from the bobs
backup server, not the client. If the client could initiate some kind of
connection, such as vpn, so bobs has a route to it, then it could work.

Hello again. I doing the authentication but something
strange is happening. First, I included two input text
fields in the form where the buttons change and delete are
placed. When i click the delete button i managed to get
the values login and password. I put then into a variable
and turned the variable into an array. Then I did and
array_search for the values login and password and put the
value that is in the next array position into variables.
By doing this a get the login and the password form the
backup configuration. To this point everything worked
fine.
Now I have to compare the login and password that came
from bobs with the ones that I typed in the input text
fields that i created in the main screen. Using $_REQUEST
or any other method, I managed to get these values from
the input text fileds. The problem is when I have to
compare the values. For example, I create a backup job
with the login leo and password 123. Then I want to delete
it. I enter my password and login into the input fileds
and click delete. The next page have to compare if the
login and password I typed match the original ones. But
it's considering the leo from bobs different from the leo
I typed. I tryed creating the md5 of both leo's and the
values were different too. Why is that? Does bobs use some
special caracter type that just bobs can understand?
I will post the code later here to make it clear.
Did you understand my small explanation? : )
Thanks!
Leo

hi bobs developers, I was looking for a free (as in speech) backup system and found your program. My requests are client/server architecture, backup on disk, connect via rsync/ssh, client operability via browser, store on crypted file systems, store of only diff. Basically, what I need is to create repository where to store backups of different machines. Every machine should have its own crypted volume on the backup server. My "client" machines are behind a firewall and a NAT system, so every backup/restore and every communication should start from the client. The question is: is bobs for me? I am compiling and installing bobs on a Debian/powerpc machine and I only found a problem in the configure script that is actually looking for 'httpd' as web server, while here I have apache-ssl. I just created a patch in order to make configure test for http, apache, apache-ssl. Thanks, Giuseppe |

Hi there, I'm trying to force authentication when the user
clicks on the DELETE and CHANGE button in administrator
page. For example, if I create a backup work no one else
can change or delete my settings, just I can do that using
my login and password. It's the same as when we want to
enter restore page. I need to type my login and password
and select my server. I want to do that to change and
delete too. Does anyone knows how to do that?
Thanks!
Leo

I spent this weekend writing an interface to edit the exclude lists - lists of files and directories to exclude from backups. You can select a server to edit the specific exclude list for it, or don't select a server to edit the default exclude list. I'd appreciate any feedback from you cvs downloaders. Also if any of you have tried the incremental file cleanup routines I committed to cvs a couple weeks ago I'd appreciate feedback on that too. Cheers, Joe |

I've committed the incremental file cleanup to cvs. It uses a new class "class_cleanup.php" that's based on class_db.php and uses it's variables and a couple of it's functions. The output of the incremental cleanup lists all the files and directories that get deleted but it goes to standard output instead of bobs.log, which for the cron job "backup.php" ends up in root's email. We may want to make a change to redirect the output of backup.php to bobs.log. Here's how it works: o backup.php creates a new cleanup object. o backup.php runs cleanup->delete_files() and cleanup->delete_dirs(). o delete_files() reads through the bobs database and deletes files older than the calculated days to keep. It also removes the records from the database. o delete_dirs() reads through the bobs directory database and removes any empty directories and deletes the record from the database. I hope some of you will update your bobs installation from cvs, try this out, and let me know how it works before we create a new release. Cheers, Joe |

1) Open konqueror
From a xterm or console session type: konqueror &
2) Split the window in two
Click on Window, then Split View
3) Browse to the bobsdata directory in the left (or top) pane
Click on one of the panes. In the url type file:/var/bobsdata
4) In the right pane sftp://your.server
Click in the other pane. In the url type the name of the computer where you want to restore the
files, like this sftp://your.server.name. This assumes you have ssh setup on that machine.
5) Then you can drag and drop files from bobsdata to the other server.
Drag and drop files from one pane to the other.

Can you manually read, write, and delete a file over the nfs share from the bobs server to maq104/Leo? The INSTALL file has a section on setting up nfs and testing it, you may want to take a good look at the INSTALL documentation. Joe |

Hello, thanks for your attention! ; )
Now i'm using two machines, in a network. I
configured my server and tried check configuration.
Everything ok, except for this error:
"Attempting to write, read and delete a file on
/var/bobsdata/current/process/mounts/maq104/Leo" FAIL
Write file test failed with these messages:
/var/bobsdata/current/process/cmd/cmd.1084317446.bash:
line 9:
/var/bobsdata/current/process/mounts/maq104/Leo/bobswritetest.out:
File or Directory not found
cat:
/var/bobsdata/current/process/mounts/maq104/Leo/bobswritetest.out:
File or
Directory not found
I'm doing backup using rsync with ssh and restore
using nfs. The backup process is ok. When I try to restore
the files the following error shows up after clicking
Check Server:
"An error occured. (Could not get remote server info).
Unable to proceed"
I don't know what to do, because everything works
fine and just restore isn't working, and I'm desperate to
see the restore working! Help me, please!!! : (
One more thing. Why the Browse Incremental folder
shows 2 warnings when I click it and I don't have any
files in it? In the other folders it shows no files were
found without warnings.
Warning: First argument to array_keys() should be an array
in /var/www/html/bobs/inc/class_db.php on line 440
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in
/var/www/html/bobs/inc/class_db.php on line 441
No files were found in
Thank you guys!

The easiest way I've found so far is to 1) Open konqueror 2) Split the window in two 3) Browse to the bobsdata directory in the left pane 4) In the right pane sftp://your.server 5) Then you can drag and drop files from bobsdata to the other server. Jochen Metzger taught me that trick. Cheers, Joe Zacky |

Hi there,
I'm using bobs in a local machine for testing, and I
decided to use nfs to backup and restore, because it seens
to be easier to use. Everything went ok until the restore
part. Bobs recognize everything, incremental, files
backuped, etc. But when i try to restore, it return an
error saying bobs couldn´t connect to the remote server.
What can it be? I'm using in just one machine to learn how
to use, is there any problens with it? Doesn't bobs work
locally? The check configuration process was ok. Just
restore doesn't work. I'm using Red Hat 9.
One more thing! Does someone did a restore process
using any other process that is not samba or nfs? If
someone have a solution using rsync, sftp or any other
method that is not samba or nfs, can you share it with me?
I would appreciate it.
Thanks!
Leonardo

The thing is that a user who logs in, wants to restore some stuff, not actually look, what he has backupped. (IMHO I implemented this, because, an error came up, when no restore was enabled).
