This problem hasn't been reported by any other users in the significant time since that upgrade. Looking at the output, rsync seems to return a crazy return code (5888) which doesn't match any one documented in the manual. I think you need to debug that rsync command and see if you can reproduce it outside backintime, and track back from there. Maybe some of those globs are questionable; not sure whether some of them are generated by backintime? I'm going to close this bug as I don't think there is anything I can do in the Fedora packaging of this, and support issues would be better handled upstream, but feel free to re-open if there is a packaging issue causing this. |
Description of problem: Ever since backintime was updated to 1.0.6, back-ups have been failing for me. I have run "Back In Time (root)" and converted the file layout to the new format. I am running backintime backups via a cron script in /etc/cron.daily/: #!/bin/sh HOME=/root nice -n 19 /usr/bin/backintime --backup-job >/dev/null 2>&1 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): backintime-gnome-1.0.6-2.fc14.noarch backintime-common-1.0.6-2.fc14.noarch How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Let backup script run. Actual results: These messages in /var/log/messages: Mar 10 10:48:27 worm backintime (root): INFO: Lock Mar 10 10:48:27 worm backintime (root): INFO: on process begins Mar 10 10:48:27 worm backintime (root): INFO: Profile_id: 1 Mar 10 10:48:42 worm backintime (root): INFO: Compare with old snapshot: 20110212-111501 Mar 10 10:57:37 worm backintime (root): WARNING: Command "rsync -rtDH --links --no-p --no-g --no-o --delete --delete-excluded -i --dry-run --out-format="BACKINTIME: %i %n%L" --chmod=Du+wx --exclude="/mnt/backup" --exclude="/root/.local/share/backintime" --include="/etc/" --include="/var/" --include="/home/" --exclude="*.backup*" --exclude="*~" --exclude="/home/twaugh/VM" --exclude="*.src.rpm" --exclude="*-*_*-*_*" --exclude="noarch" --exclude="x86_64" --exclude="*.iso" --exclude="/var/cache" --exclude=".ccache" --exclude=".cache" --exclude="Cache" --exclude="/var/lib" --exclude="/home/twaugh/Video Editing" --include="/etc/**" --include="/var/**" --include="/home/**" --exclude="*" / "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/20110212-111501/backup/"" returns 5888 Mar 10 10:57:37 worm backintime (root): INFO: Create hard-links Mar 10 10:59:09 worm backintime (root): INFO: Command "find "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/20110212-111501/backup/" -type d -exec chmod u+wx {} \;" returns 0 Mar 10 11:10:48 worm backintime (root): INFO: Command "cp -aRl "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/20110212-111501/backup/"* "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/new_snapshot/backup/"" returns 0 Mar 10 11:12:11 worm backintime (root): INFO: Command "find "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/20110212-111501/backup/" -type d -exec chmod a-w {} \;" returns 0 Mar 10 11:19:00 worm backintime (root): INFO: Command "chmod -R a+w "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/new_snapshot"" returns 0 Mar 10 11:19:00 worm backintime (root): INFO: Call rsync to take the snapshot Mar 10 11:29:50 worm backintime (root): WARNING: Command "rsync -rtDH --links --no-p --no-g --no-o --delete --delete-excluded -v --chmod=Du+wx --exclude="/mnt/backup" --exclude="/root/.local/share/backintime" --include="/etc/" --include="/var/" --include="/home/" --exclude="*.backup*" --exclude="*~" --exclude="/home/twaugh/VM" --exclude="*.src.rpm" --exclude="*-*_*-*_*" --exclude="noarch" --exclude="x86_64" --exclude="*.iso" --exclude="/var/cache" --exclude=".ccache" --exclude=".cache" --exclude="Cache" --exclude="/var/lib" --exclude="/home/twaugh/Video Editing" --include="/etc/**" --include="/var/**" --include="/home/**" --exclude="*" / "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/new_snapshot/backup/" 2>&1" returns 5888 Mar 10 11:31:51 worm backintime (root): INFO: Command "find "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/new_snapshot" -type d -exec chmod u+wx {} \;" returns 0 Mar 10 11:41:42 worm backintime (root): INFO: Command "rm -rf "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/new_snapshot"" returns 0 Mar 10 11:48:47 worm backintime (root): INFO: Command "chmod -R a-w "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/20110212-111501/backup/"" returns 0 Mar 10 11:48:47 worm backintime (root): INFO: Command "rm -rf "/mnt/backup/backintime/worm.elk/root/1/20110310-104827-768"" returns 0 Mar 10 11:48:47 worm backintime (root): ERROR: Failed to take snapshot !!!
