Before I start with the bad news, le me first express that I'm very glad, that somebody took the efford to create the backup module. It makes admin live so much easier! Thank you!

Now the bad news:

After backing-up drupal (v5.1) and it's database (MySQL v5.0) with Backup.Module (backup-5.x-2.x-dev.) I get a strange message:

tar: Removing leading `/' from member names

I have downloaded the resulting tar.gz file and it SEEMS to be ok. I don't know what to think about that. Maybe a bug?

Greetings,

pepebe

Sometimes tar says that message when you are trying to back up the full path to a file. I'm not sure why it is showing up in your case though.

Anyway, I have a new version of this module on the way, details are at http://drupal.org/node/151077

If the problem persists in the new version, please let me know, thanks!
