Hi all,
I can't get taper to finish its run when called from roots crontab.
When I run it from roots command line it works just fine. My crontab
entry is:
38 0 * * 0,1,3,5 /sbin/taper -U @full
It starts and selects the fileset that is defined in 'full'. But then
it errors with the following error:
Backup commenced at Mon Oct 19 01:14:07 1998
Unable to start backup child
Backup ABORTED
Backup finished at Mon Oct 19 01:26:12 1998
Then cron sends an email which states:
Unable to start backup child
sh: /var/tmp/taper12645aaa: No such file or directory
/var/tmp has permissions of
5 drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 5120 Oct 19 01:26 /var/tmp/
What should I be looking for? Any hints on how to get this to work
under cron?
Thanks,
--
Brian
