Hi, The suggestion I made yesterday on IRC concerning these emails was to strip the leading / from filenames in the back-up script (I am assuming that we have a list of files to back up, and that they are provided in a file list provided to -T or --files-from - get files to archive from filename) and provide -C / as an argument (that is, set working directory to / for the archival). Obviously, without access to the backup script, it's hard to recommend a specific fix. Is mediawiki-backup.sh in source control somewhere? Thanks! Dave. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Cron <root@linode01> /root/bin/mediawiki-backup.sh Date: Wed, 14 Nov 2012 20:11:03 -0500 (EST) From: root@linode01.ovirt.org (Cron Daemon) To: root@linode01.ovirt.org tar: Removing leading `/' from member names tar: Removing leading `/' from hard link targets _______________________________________________ Infra mailing list Infra@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/infra
