Re: [BackupPC-users] BackupPC Errors log

I do see files in the backup that are referenced in the "Error only" list.

Closer review of each entry:

tarExtract: Got file './Program Files/Common Files/System/en-US/', mode 040755, size 0, type 5

all the lines extra "non-error" lines are directories, thus a "size 0". Is that what it's seeing as an error? Even though the files contained within are backed up?

Also, there a a few others buried within that are files:

tarExtract: Got file './Users/BKeadle/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Internet Explorer/Custom Settings/Custom2/seczones.inf', mode 0100644, size 114318, type 0

and they are in fact backed up - so why reported as an error? I'm not sure how to identify, the actual 111 errors reported.

Not sure why you are seeing items that don't look like errors in the
error listing, but this is the thing you need to be concerned about
since it covers the entire tree below and is probably what you really
want to back up. Either the credentials you are using don't have
full admin/backup rights or your samba version isn't passing things
correctly. I'm not much of a windows expert so I'm not sure how to
fix it.
