Subject: [BackupPC-users] BackupPC-4.0.0alpha3 - Can't create a test hardlink between a file...

I am having a bit of a problem starting  BackupPC-4.0.0alpha3 on my debian (jessie) system.  When I run the command:  "/etc/init.d/backuppc start" as user backuppc or as root, I get the following output:

"Starting backuppc: 2015-01-28 17:12:12 Can't create a test hardlink between a file in /data/BackupPC/pc and /data/BackupPC/cpool.  Either these are different file systems, or this file system doesn't support hardlinks, or these directories don't exist, or there is a permissions problem, or the file system is out of inodes or full.  Use df, df -i, and ls -ld to check each of these possibilities. Quitting..."

They are not different file systems they are ext4; the directories do exist and the permissions appear to be correct (755).  Additionally, the filesystem is not out of inodes and is not full.  Here are some outputs:

"backuppc@linux-pc5:/data/BackupPC$ ls -la

Any suggestions as to what the problem is?  It is probably something simple but I am not that well versed on debian (or any other flavor for that matter).  Thanks.

btw, when I run the start command "/etc/init.d/backuppc start" as another user, I get the following output:

"Starting backuppc: /etc/init.d/backuppc: 37: /etc/init.d/backuppc: start-stop-daemon: not found""
