I may have missed something obvious but I am unable to create an archive of 
existing backups using the CGI interface and schedule facilities.  All other 
normal backups are successfully created this way.  If started manually from the 
CGI interface the archive is created successfully.

When scheduled via the CGI the Server log shows:
2008-11-17 08:00:00 Next wakeup is 2008-11-17 08:15:00


When scheduled via the CGI the Host log shows:
Blank i.e. no entries


Settings used for testing (have I missed others that are relevant?)
BackupsDisable = 0
BlackoutPeriods = Deleted
BackupZeroFilesIsFatal = Unticked


The on-line documentation at Sourceforge mentions creating an archive at the 
command line using BackupPC_archiveStart.  This method fails as the system 
cannot find BackupPC_archiveStart.


Once archiving is operating as required the next step will be to incorporate 
"ArchivePreUserCmd" and "ArchivePostUserCmd" to enable the archive to be 
created on an external Truecrypt disk; however this stage will be tested 
separately and is mentioned for completeness only.

Any and all suggestions on how to get this working will be welcomed.
