Hey Folks, there is a fresh bug on launchpad [1] which brings up the opportunity for me to learn something. In short about the bug: I assume the LOCK file is somewhere. But I don't know where BIT stores it. Maybe one of you can jump in and help. And I didn't found the LOCK-file topic in our FAQ. Would be great to add this there, too. Back to the main topic of that mail. It is an often experience situation for me when dealing with log files and debug output. In relation to that specific issue let me ask some questions please. - The reporter use "systemctl status cron" to show us cron output. But BIT isn't a systemd unit. How can I ask the system for BIT releated syslog output? Next time I can answer the user with "Please execute 'xyz' in the shell and post me the output.". - Where does BIT store its LOCK files? It seems to me this information is not present in debug output. But I'm not sure. Kind Christian [1] -- <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/backintime/+bug/2003326>
