Hi all,
I tried to exclude a parent.lock file, because BoxBackup couldn't back
it up.
So I tried to exclude it, following the example:
ExcludeFilesRegex = *.(mp3|MP3)$
and changed it to:
ExcludeFilesRegex = *.(lock)$
or
ExcludeFilesRegex = *.lock$
But then I got the following errors (Windows XP client):
WARNING: Exception thrown: CommonException(BadRegularExpression) at
ExcludeList.cpp(200)
ERROR: Failed to configure location 'Application Data' path
'C:\<path>\Application Data': Common BadRegularExpression: please check
for previous errors
When I changed the regex to .(lock)$ it worked (removed the * in front
of it). So I think the example is wrong in bbackupd.conf, or is it
something I'm missing?
Greetz,
Roy
