Backup Central

Hi fallows from Backup Pc... I have a problem with my backups. I had to delete a wrong backup, so I tried to run the famous script to do that, but it did not work. So I deleted manually. I did it in /var/lib/backuppc/pc/ and then in /etc/backuppc/ and deleted the .pl and .pl.old that correspond to the PC which backup I wanted to erase  and from my hosts list. The problem is when I add the PC again to my backup schedule. The backups are made but I am not able to see it in the web browser. I am not able to browse the backup. Never the least, the backup is made because I can find it in /var/lib/backuppc/pc/. Thanks in advance !

Probably the script is BackupPC_deleteBackup. Did you get any error-message?

You have to delete the backups in /var/lib/backuppc/pc/<host>/backups too.
In addition you should delete the corresponding XferLOG.<backup-number>
Also you can check owner and file permisions in /etc/backuppc/ as well as in
/var/lib/backuppc/pc/<PC>
If you've deleted the .pl you can't add him to the backup schedule. Probably
you didn't tell us the whole story
