Hello community,

 

i got still the same error! Please help me, i installed a fresh installation of esxi 5.1 and downloaded the newest  ghettovcb files!

After the installation i i created a new vm(debian) and wanted to backup this machine!

 

I still get the same error as in my first post!

 

I observed, that the file stat to clone the vm but at 77% it stops!

 

./ghettoVCB.sh: line 28: busybox: not found  --> in the .sh file, i replaced the busybox to /usr/lib/vmware/busybox/bin/busybox  -> no improvment, still the same error

 

./ghettoVCB.sh: line 28: can't create /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/backups/debian_netinstall/debian_netinstall-2013-01-09_22-35-30/STA                           TUS.ok: nonexistent directory

 

---> i cant explain me, why there is this error! i executed this file as root, so i thought there can´t be any directory rights!

 

Please help me communtiy, it would be very helpful for me! I want to use this tool!

Listet below, there is the full output!
