I’ve recently needed to reinstall BackupPC on Mac OS X
10.5 Leopard. While it had worked previously on this platform, I’m
getting some very odd errors that driving me insane:
I’m able to run backups for a period of time but some
point in time during the day I’ll begin to get repeated iterations of the
following:
/opt/local/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_dump: Wrong user: my userid
is 501, instead of (tlctoor)
Please su tlctoor first
BackupPC::Lib->new failed
After I get this, newly initiated processes will fail but
previously active processes seem to continue. I then need to restart the
BackupPC service to get backups back on track.
What am I missing, where should I look?
