There is no sendbackup.*.debug.
I don't remember anymore where 2.4.2 put it's debug files,
and for how long. I do remember JRJ changed something about
handling those debug files in 2.4.2p2. Maybe they are named
different, or not kept long enough.
Of course sendbackup.*debug is only generated when the backup
really runs; while doing the estimate it generates sendsize.*debug
files; and both commands can be found in runtar.*.debug files.
I'm using Debian woody too, and here are the /tmp/amanda files I
have from today:
amandad.20030918003003.debug runtar.20030918003014.debug

For some reason it is working now, without upgrading :-)
Slowly I do remember JRJ changed the handling of debugfiles, so
that they are not overwritten be previous runs. If you have many
disks, only the last one would be found. Upgrading is best anyway.
Not sure I concur with the "upgrading is best" part. The Debian
Woody packages (2.4.2p2) have been working fine for me for quite
some time. So I'd suggest it's a simple config error.
Thanks, I didn't upgrade.
Paul & Kurt, thanks for your help.
Marc
