Toucan 1.2.1 Pre-release 4 Submitted by Steve Lamerton on December 19, 2007 - 4:12pm
A pre-release of Toucan 1.2.1 is now up, it hopefully fixed all of these bugs:
If any of these bugs arn't fixed, or you can find any more please post below. The single new feature with 1.2.1 is that you should be able to run command line jobs directly from the main Toucan.exe in the programs root folder. You can get it here. *EDIT* Pre-release two is now up, this makes a few changes, most if which I can't remember (I'll post them up later), but it now forces ccrypt to overwrite existing files, stopping the freezing issue. *EDIT* *EDIT 2* A whole host of new bugs are fixed in this one, hopefully it'll be the last release. *EDIT 2* *EDIT 3* Load more fixes, I think after this release, any bugs that remain will become features :) I've updated the fixed bugs list at the top. *EDIT 3* ( categories: )

Can
I take it that this means there are no issues, also can someone test this on Windows 98, it should now work but I cannot test it.

Sorry,
for not replying sooner, I have exams this week so I'm pretty busy. I'll have a look at this as soon as I can though. Could you post the settings that you used as it could be a combination that is a problem now.
'...and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard...' JFK
Sure
Its exactly the same as the settings i used in the original Toucan Backup problem forum in the Toucan area. Il retrieve them later.
Pre-release 2
is now out.
'...and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard...' JFK

Same settings as before, still not fixed. This did NOT happen in the original Toucan that was uploaded first on this site. Could i please get a copy of that from someone so i can backup as i am getting kind of worried now 0_0;
Hmm,
this is annoying, I'll look into it, as for other version all the files are available here.

Cheers ^_^
Thanks for the backdate, i dont mind still being your test subject to help you fix it. Anything you need to know or want me to try then just ask ^_^
(Please note i check this at least once a day, so anything you want done should be pretty quick ;))
Pre-release 3
is now up.
'...and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard...' JFK
I can't overwrite the job.
I can't overwrite the job when I try to save it.
OK
I'll look into this, were you still using backup?
'...and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard...' JFK
Yes, the problem is only in
Yes, the problem is only in Backup.
Thanks.
Yep
I've found this one, it'll be fixed in the final release.

Exclusion of folders does not work!
In the incremental mode, the exclusion of folders does not work :(.
Tried everything! :(
/EDIT: It works in no mode any more! Neither 7z nor zip. Not Complete, Update or Incremental :(
OK,
when the backup is running look in the App\toucan directory and there should be a text file in there called temp-exclusions.txt, do the values in this file look correct?
'...and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard...' JFK
When I started Toucan and
When I started Toucan and run the backup for the first time, there is the right folder in the "temp-exclusions.txt" (tried to backup toucan itself and the excluded folder is 'Other'), but it does NOT exclude that folder.
When I run the backup process a second time, Toucan doesn't care, what I changed in folder exclusion. The remains "/Other" - no change is accepted. :(
OK
I've fixed this one properly this time, it'll be fixed in the next pre-release.

Pre-release 4.1

Hmm,
why has the topic vanished.
*EDIT* Hmm, looks like my topic was taken out by the spam filterer, it's back now with fewer links

even file exclusion seems to be ok

I'm glad to hear it!
'...and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard...' JFK
Everything fine :)
Hey Steve,
now your programm runs without any problems :D. I just started recommending it to a lot of fellow students ;).
/EDIT: Ok, there is one last problem with commandline incremental backup. Toucan said "Welcome..." and nothing happens - no hdd action, nothing. But thats no real big problem.
I'm
glad it's all working (almost) I'll take a look at that issue ASAP and try and get a fix into the final release.

Is there a need to repeat, that your support is perfect ;) ?? NO :D !!!
Thanks!

is Preview=1 ignored by command line system?
My job is Type=Sync; Function=Update; Attributes=1; Preview=1; Exclusions=|
Running Toucan 1.2.1, PR4 in a WinXp SP2 command prompt window via PortableApps\Toucan\App\Toucan\Toucan.exe
For testing purposes I don't want any changes made till I know I've set it up right but it seems that Preview=1 is ignored?
HP200LX Treo650 2G_SD+USB PAM & ASuite
Yes,
preview is ignored when using the command lines system, the thinking behind that was that you need to use the GUI to create the job files so you could test it from there, I'll look at getting it supported in 2.0 though.
'...and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard...' JFK
That makes sense
but I was hoping that preview=1 worked and the log file could be produced so that I could see the result of running Toucan from within an AutoIt script when the command prompt window isn't visible.
HP200LX Treo650 2G_SD+USB PAM & ASuite
Ahh,
I see, in that case I'll try to add it to 2.0.
