Re: amrecover Problem

Hi there,
ive got a Problem with amrecover on an Debian GNU/Linux maschine.
amrecover reports:
No index records for disk for specified date
If date correct, notify system administrator
In debug files in /tmp i cant find any other Informations.Debugfile is
there but the informations are the same shown on client. There is a
backup on level 0 on specified date. In amanda.conf index yes is set on
dumptype. -> index is on the secified indexdir, so i can zcat it and see
all files an directorys.
Iam using tar (GNU tar 1.13.25), so it cant be the known bug on older
gtar versions, and amanda version 2.4.2p2.
Are there any solutions.
I got the same error message on a recovery attempt some time back, and it
was caused by a permission problem that prevented the backup config from
being read correctly. Note that the config files are read by amandad
(amrecover is just a client application that interacts with amandad),
which is usually executed as "amanda", so the files need to be readable by
that user. Also, amandad apparently has (or had) a bug that prevents some
file open problems from being reported in the logs.
In other words, you probably need to chmod or chown one or more of the
config files (in my case it was the tapelist) to make them readable by
amandad.
Greetings
Daniel
