No but the <archive>.pc config file and log files goes there :-)
I did see the same problem earlier.
I just tried again and did create a new archive and got the very same
problem.
You have to start the archive BEFORE IT GOES WRONG. You will then get
this message
"Error: Can't open/create /data/BackupPC/pc/archive2/archiveReq.2143.0"
in this case my hostname was "archive2".
It did not help adding "clientNameAlias=localhost".
Creating the directory by hand (as backuppc user) and rerun the archive
job did help.
backuppc@debian:/data/BackupPC/pc$ mkdir archive2
<run archive>
backuppc@debian:/data/BackupPC/pc$ l archive2
total 24
