Hi,

I've had the same message yesterday - I suggest you read the
/tmp/Amanda/amidxtaped.<timestamp>.debug file and post the contents.  In
my case amrecover was being passed a '0' for the tapedev instead of a
suitable tape device.  This was because it was picking up my chg-scsi
setup, and mapping the device name (0) instead of the device type
(/dev/nst0) to amrestore.  I worked around this but using the settape
/dev/nst0 to pick up the tape device directly and avoid the /dev/sg
devices altogether which amrestore couldn't cope with.

Subject: amrecover problem

Hello,

When I tried to recover a folder called "my folder" (with space in it,

I

don't know if this could be the problem). I have for time to time,
Segment Fault.

and when I try to recover (when I don't receive the error) with the
extract command :

Load tape weekly-05 now
Continue [?/Y/n/s/t]? Y
EOF, check amidxtaped.<timestamp>.debug file on localhost.
amrecover: short block 0 bytes
UNKNOWN file
amrecover: Can't read file header
extract_list - child returned non-zero status: 1


Some hints ??
Thanks !!
