Hi,
I stumbled over the following error message in bbackupquery when
restoring to a directory (command restore) with a trailing "/" in the
target directory name.
query > restore /files/src/ /home/user/test1/
Exception: Common OSFileOpenError (Can't open a file -- attempted to
load a non-existant config file or bad file referenced within?) (1/2)
The same restore went well without the trailing "/"
query > restore /files/src/ /home/user/test1
...........................................................
Restore complete
Are there any reasons I can't use a trailing "/" with the target
directory name? It would be more user friendly if a trailing "/" is
ignored silently or at least a more explanatory error message, telling
that there is something wrong with the target directory, should be used.
btw: Thanks for the debian sarge packages provided at
http://debian.myreseau.org/. I think they should be mentioned somewhere
on the boxbackup homepage at fluffy.org!
thanks & br
Wolfgang
