Backuppc v3.0.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2007-01-28 // over 17 years ago
  • ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    • BackupPC_sendEmail now correctly sends admin email if backups were skipped because the disk was too full, reported by Dan Pritts.

    • BackupPC_Admin now uses $Conf{UmaskMode}, so config.pl files written by the editor have more restrictive permissions. Reported by Tim Massey.

    • Host summary now shows active backups on disabled hosts, from Jono Woodhouse.

    • 🛠 Fixed host LOG link and LOG list order, reported by Tim Massey.

    • 🔧 Moved Encode.pm version check to start of configure.pl so it produces a useful error message if Encode.pm is too old.

    • 🛠 Fixed hrefs to configuration documentation to handle changes in the way perl generates the anchors. Reported by Philip Gleghorn.

    • 🌲 Host name links in LOG files now allow "." in the host name. Reported by Jean-Michel Beuken.

    • 🛠 Fixes to lib/BackupPC/Xfer/Tar.pm for tar 1.16: allow 1 (ie: 256) as a successful exit status and match "Total bytes read" message for restores. First reported by Torsten Sadowski and debugged by Ralf Gross and Holger Parplies.
