delete tmp file

Submitted by Gwray on June 9, 2016 - 2:55pm

I tried the software to backup a large thunderbird file. It kept saying not enough room and timed out.
I gave up and jut want to delete the files it tried to make. They are *.zip.tmp files ? I have tried unlocker and lockhunter - just locks up?

Warning

Submitted by marcell on October 23, 2015 - 1:26am

Hi,
When I try to use Toucan for backup, I get a warning that is called wxWidgets Debug Alert. It asks me if I want to stop the program. No backup is performed. What is being wrong? I have made a screen print and saved it but can't find a way to add it here. Is there any?

Running Scripts with Windows Path

Submitted by paulojfonseca on August 4, 2015 - 5:52am

Hi all,

I am trying to create a very simple script to copy 1 file between 2 locations.
I am using Windows 7 32 bits.

I am using the following code:
copy("E:\\abc.txt", "E:\\a\\")
or
copy([[E:\abc.txt]], [[E:\a\]])

both e:\abc.txt file and e:\a folder exit but i keep receiving this message:

10:49:33 Failed to copy E:\abc.txt
10:49:33 Toucan 3.1
Date: 2015-08-04
Computer Name: ESP-AED-017
Operating System: Windows 7 (build 7601, Service Pack 1)

Rule: only current files to sync / copy - please ?Help?

hello,
I'm start with toucan 3.1
And I have a problem with Toucan, I find no matching examples.
I would like from different directories / drives the files with a specific folder (for example: C:/news) sync or copy, that's simple and I manage itself.

But now the problem in the rules:

I just want to transfer files and synchronize that have been changed in the last 5 days!
I had thought that it works with a rule:
sampel:
"include files / Date /> @date@ -5"
or "exclude files /Date/ <@date@ -5"

Delete file in Dest. that is in Source

Submitted by nugroho2 on May 31, 2015 - 2:52pm

Please help a beginner...

I want to delete file in Destination that is also in Source. How could I do that? I have tried and sought various sources and can not find it.

Files in Source : A, B, C , D
Files in Destination: A, F, G

I want to delete the file A in destination. Is that possible using Toucan? Or I should use other software?

Thanks a lot.
Eddie

Restore Issue: "The backup archive must be specified"

Submitted by clix on April 26, 2015 - 3:24pm

Hi there,
I lost my laptop and was glad that I had a pretty recent Toucan backup - until I wanted to restore the ZIP file: after selecting the archive zip file and the destination, I only get the error message "The backup archive must be specified". Any idea what I do wrong?
Thanks a lot,
Clix

Regex examples

Submitted by az2000 on June 26, 2014 - 12:48am

I am using the latest version of Toucan. Works great, except I can't get the file include to work. I've searched for examples of regexes, but most questions seem to almost be *evaded*. ("I didn't understand your question..." "simple matching should work for that.").

Are there any examples of *working* regexes?

All I want to do is include files with an extension ".mp3" I've tried regexes, and it copies all files. I've tried simple .mp3 and it includes all files.

If this is supposed to work, examples would be nice.
