i have read that thread but didn't found any solutions.

Looks like you have a old version of that script at it should be setting the variable DRCP to either yes or no. It is falling over as that variable has not been declared. Easy solution would be to put quotes around the variables being checked.

hi,

Now above problem has been resolved but now i am facing another problem when running this script with -f option instead of --INSTALL.

Below is output of error.

[root@mail Sources]# sh zmbac.sh -f

Dar had a problem!
No message, no subject; hope that's ok

Make sure the permissions on /Backup/zimbra_dars/ are open for writing including the parent folder /Backup which is off the root mountpoint.

hi,

i have check the permission on /backup folder it is full i mean 777. also same permission on /etc/dar folder.

Run the script again using sh -x so that you can see the actual commands being executed. This will make it easier to diagnose your problem.
