I’m running UrBackup Client 0.40.1 on Windows 7 x64 and UrBackup Server 0.26.1 on Debian Squeeze.
Image backups are working fine but file backups starts/completes without any file backups actually happening.
I’ve tried different paths in the Include path for the backups.
debug.log & /var/log/urbackup.log are not showing any errors or warnings.
Any tips for debugging ?
Did you set any paths that it should backup via “Add/remove paths” on the Client tray icon or in the server interface (Included files only works on those paths)
Paths were set from the Client tray icon. These paths also reflect on the server side when viewing the client configs.
Can you see a log entry for the file backup in the web interface?
You get more infos by changing the loglevel:
For the client this can be done in C:\Program files\UrBackup\args.txt
Change the “warn” there to “debug” and restart the service. (UrBackupClientBackend)
I’ve changed the logging level to debug.
From the web interface the file backups look like this:
Computer name Backup time Errors Warnings Action
rcoetzee-HP 2012-08-12 08:09 0 0 Full file backup
Here is the debug.log after changing the log level & starting a full file backup:

I’m sorry but I can’t see what is wrong. Maybe on the server side.
Can you put the server into debug mode via editing /etc/default/urbackup_srv (change error or warn to debug) and post the relevant part of /var/log/urbackup.log ?
Thanks.
Good afternoon

Looks like its not seeing the Windows directory I specified “C:\Users*”
I’ve specified it from the client & server side but it still shows this failed message.
Any ideas?
Are you sure you specified them via “Add/Remove Paths” and NOT via “Settings”, because normally you do not see them on the server (Contrary to the included paths settings)?
Problem is fixed.
I removed all the include excludes from both sides & added the paths with the Add/Remove paths.
Works great now. Any plans to maybe push file backups to zip file repositories?
Good.
If you want it compressed you should use fusecompress, zfs or btrfs and store it on that. You can also always use duplicity etc. to backup the “clients” folder in urbackup on the server.
I’ll try btrfs this weekend.
Thanks again
I’d advise to use the latest kernel then (from unstable/sid).
