Hi Oumar,

I suspect something else is wrong.

I entered a completely different [dirconfig] and got the same result. 
The following files are created on the remote site:

ncftp ...alhost.localdomain.ful > ls -l
-rw-r--r--   support  support            8 Sep 23 05:22 excludes
-rw-r--r--   support  support          106 Sep 23 05:23 excludes.list
-rw-r--r--   support  support          130 Sep 23 05:23 excludes.list.tmp
-rw-r--r--   support  support            0 Sep 23 05:23 files.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--   support  support            6 Sep 23 05:22 format
-rw-r--r--   support  support          104 Sep 23 05:23 includes.list
-rw-r--r--   support  support          104 Sep 23 05:23 includes.list.tmp
-rw-r--r--   support  support            0 Sep 23 05:22 packages

As you can see the files.tar.gz is empty.

The filespec used was:

ncftp ...alhost.localdomain.ful > cat includes.list
/home/abonnema/Documents/00-private
/work/thuis
/ddisk/backup/00-keyfiles
/ddisk/backup/00-protected-01

ncftp ...alhost.localdomain.ful > cat excludes.list

/sys/*
/tmp/*
/proc/*
/dev/*
/home/abonnema/.local/share/nssbackup/mountdir/ftp_abonnema@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The relevant portion of the log is:

The error I see is weird, because the files are stored, it's just that files.tar.gz is empty. 
Also I got a bunch of the following errors for files already at the remote site:

2009-09-23 05:24:46,270 - WARNING -
SnapshotManager.py:_read_snps_from_disk_allformats(174) - Got a non
valid snapshot 'signature' due to name convention : Name of Snapshot not
valid : False

So, that's it. Hope you can make heads or tail of it.

Guus.
