Re: error processing config file with amcheck

Thanks JL you right. I've made my own dumptype and it's much better.

But amcheck tell me to run it as user backup instead of root and when Irun it with user backup, i've got:


backup:/$ /usr/sbin/amcheck DailySet
amcheck: could not open /tmp/amanda/amcheck.temp.19982: Permission denied

amcheck is setuid so I don't understand why it fail (and why it tries toopen /tmp/amanda)

-rwsr-xr--  1 root backup 35164 2006-04-03 14:07 amcheck

Any idea ?

Hi,

no-record is a predefined dumptype, you can't redefine it.

See 'man amanda.conf' or 'man amanda' for all predefined value.

The message could be more explicit.

Hi list,

I've got the following error running amcheck:

backup:/# amcheck DailySet
"/etc/amanda/DailySet/amanda
.conf", line 121: dumptype NO-RECORD
already defined on line -1

amcheck: errors processing config file"/etc/amanda/DailySet/amanda.conf"


I've checked the man page of amcheck but didn't find what this error
means.
Here are parts of my amanda.conf and disklist files concerning the
dumptype:

amanda.conf:

define dumptype no-record {
   comment "testing dump of this filesystem"
   options no-compress
   priority high
   index yes
}


disklist:

# PDC no-full backup
pdc /home/ no-record
pdc /etc/ no-record
pdc /var/lib/samba/ no-record

# Groupware no-full backup
groupware /etc/ no-record
groupware /var/spool/imap/ no-record
groupware /var/imap/ no-record


Did I made something wrong ?
Any help would be appreciate

Thanks a lot

Thomas
