Dear all,

I've inherited a backuppc system that was working as expected until this morning when the web interface showed an error. I tried to restart backuppc, but can't get the service to start:

jreeves@lancbkup:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/backuppc start
 * Starting backuppc...                                                                                                                                      /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC: Wrong user: my userid is 106, instead of  (backuppchttp://10.1.0.110/backuppc/index.cgi?action="">)
Please su backuppchttp://10.1.0.110/backuppc/index.cgi?action=""> first
BackupPC::Lib->new failed
jreeves@lancbkup:~$ sudo su backuppc
backuppc@lancbkup:/home/jreeves$ /etc/init.d/backuppc start
 * Starting backuppc...                                                                                                                                      /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC: Wrong user: my userid is 106, instead of  (backuppchttp://10.1.0.110/backuppc/index.cgi?action="">)
Please su backuppchttp://10.1.0.110/backuppc/index.cgi?action=""> first
BackupPC::Lib->new failed
backuppc@lancbkup:/home/jreeves$

I'm running version 3.0.0-4ubuntu1 on Ubuntu Hardy.

I've read that people have caused this issue by changing backuppc's userid, but this is not something I've done. I have recently changed wakeupschedule configuration, however.

Presumably this is a permissions issue - would appreciate any pointers.

Thanks, Joseph
