Filelist breaks when multiple backups are running #123

Open sheckandar opened 3 weeks ago

sheckandar commented 3 weeks ago

If I run multiple backups at the same time (multiple zpaqfranz processes) and have -filelist enabled, then whichever process exits first deletes the file in /tmp and then all the other processes throw an error: /tmp/<filelist name>: No such file or directory

The recommended way would be to create a randomly named directory for each process, IMHO.

Process 1 - /tmp/dh1324j/<filelist name> Process 2 - /tmp/hgdl33ll/<filelist name>

Sequential folder names would also work.

60_6u.zip You can try this untested pre-release

Thanks. That works.

But I would suggest a clean up code for the vfile directory on exit. It will accumulate over time as the system is rarely restarted.

Leave _zpaqfranz directory but delete the "timestamp" directory.

ls -alh /tmp/_zpaqfranz/
