[cobalt-users] Raqbackup Problem or CMU problem or Me!!



Hi Yah,

Just for routine measures we retrieved a backup tar.gz file from the backup server. The backups were created using raqbackup 3.1 and RaQ3-All-CMU Release 2.27 from a RaQ3

What we did was choose a random site from the backup site i.e groups-www.sitename.com.tar.gz Copy the tar.gz onto a local machine running win2000 pro and say the tar.gz is 1.5mb this looks about right for the size of site that it is.
Open up the tar.gz with winzip and extract the tar file
the tar file size shows 3.2Mb which is about the correct size of the total site open up the tar file with winzip again and there is only one folder there, the stats folder ??

Pulled off another random backup domain from the backup set and went through the procedure above and again only one folder but this time it was an images folder???

Went and did a 3rd random retrieval from the day befores backup set and went through the same procedure and again there was only one folder and it was the stats folder!!!

The raqbackup.sh script is sitting in /home/raqbackup.sh and run via cron at around 10.30pm at night
The raqbackup folder is root root rwxrwxr-x
The script raqbackup.sh is root root rwx------

Now I always thought the script did a full archive of the home/sites folders and anything else that was chosen.
Can anyone telling if this is a script issue, a CMU issue or a server issue???
Is there any settings that need to be done to CMU?
Am I missing something altogether?

I don't want to have to go back to the default GUI backup as that'll be a nightmare when it comes to restoring files.

Many thanks in advance
