0.9.4 already... you're just too fast ;)
Currently uploading Muppy 007 with Puppybackup 0.9.0.
But I did not test it myself yet.

help

#26 Post by brad_chuck »

The program looks good. When I backup to hardrive from /root/my-documents/School to /root/backup . the files show up then when the "show backup files are in the dir" comes up.

When I hit OK and exit the program the files are not there.

I am using the compress option.

thank you, brad_chuck

Bug is fixed for next release. A workaround is to copy/move the *.tgz file before closing 'finished box'.

I downloaded 1.9.3, installed it. It presented me with a rox window with the backup stuff, I clicked "puppybackup". I then tried to do a very basic thing, full back up my hard drive to a usb hard drive that I had mounted. I tried to set the file date to 1950, it seemed to want to set it to 2000 (what if I have files older than 2000?). I selected the output directory, etc. No options. Started the backup, and it gave an error message that "Another PuppyBackup is already running" and "See log for details". The log was empty. :roll:

I guess I'll try the stable version.

BTW, I like buttons to have english language words on them. I don't like tiny buttons with meaningless pictures, esp. where there is no flyover to describe what that meaningless picture is. Sorry, guess I'm old-fashioned. Never did care for the modern thing where they stick pictures on everything as if people don't know how to read. Even if you are driving an old foreign car with words on the controls you can usually figure out the words in a day or two. This is why I prefer MUT over pmount, MUT has words on the buttons.

BTW, those first 3 lines are not clear. "Save media" is meaningless - is that stuff you want to save, or where you want to save it? I actually got the two reversed first time I tried it. How about "Save to", "Save from" and "Save from date"? Can't go wrong with the words "to" and "from".

Sorry if I sound cranky. This is one of those days when nothing is working right. I should go climb back into bed.

Version 1.9.4. See main post.

This is your version. The mention bug is fixed (I guess). I also changed "Save media" to "Save to" and "Backup paths" to "Save to".

Code: Select all

Sorry if I sound cranky. This is one of those days when nothing is working right. I should go climb back into bed.
I hope you slept well.

Thanks for feedback.

About the date setting (2000). You can choose whatever date you want. But I think *nix time start 1970 ??? I don't really know how PuppyBackup will act on your files from the 50's. :wink:
