With a little help from one of the users on this list I am able to see
what the problem is but can't fix it. It seems FreeBSD might use a
different command line of tar.
When the batch.php file runs here is the error I get
/usr/bin/tar: /dev/sa0: Cannot open: Device not configured
/usr/bin/tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
A man tar tells me that the default device for the tar command is a tape
drive /dev/sa0 see the man page below.
I am no php guru so I have not the slightest idea how I can fix this.
FreeBSD General Commands Manual TAR(1)
NAME
tar - tape archiver; manipulate "tar" archive files
SYNOPSIS
tar [[-]bundled-options Args] [gnu-style-flags]
[filenames | -C directory-name] ...
DESCRIPTION
Tar is short for ``tape archiver'', so named for historical
reasons; the
tar program creates, adds files to, or extracts files from an
archive
file in tar format, called a tarfile. A tarfile is often a
magnetic
tape, but can be a floppy diskette or any regular disk file.
The first argument word of the tar command line is usually a
command word
of bundled function and modifier letters, optionally preceded by a
dash;
it must contain exactly one function letter from the set A, c, d,
r, t,
u, x, for append, create, difference, replace, table of contents,
update,
and extract (further described below). The command word can also
contain
other function modifiers described below, some of which will take
argu-
ments from the command line in the order they are specified in the
com-
mand word (review the EXAMPLES section). Functions and function
modi-
fiers can also be specified with the GNU argument convention
(preceded by
two dashes, one function or modifier per word. Command-line
arguments
that specify files to add to, extract from, or list from an archive
may
be given as shell pattern matching strings.
FUNCTIONS
Exactly one of the following functions must be specified.
-A
--catenate
--concatenate Append the contents of named file, which must itself
be a
tar archive, to the end of the archive (erasing the
old
end-of-archive block). This has the effect of
adding the
files contained in the named file to the first
archive,
rather than adding the second archive as an element
of the
first. Note: This option requires a rewritable
tarfile,
and therefore does not work on quarter-inch
cartridge
tapes.
-c
--create Create a new archive (or truncates an old one) and
writes
the named files to it.
-d
--diff
--compare Find differences between files in the archive and
corre-
sponding files in the file system.
--delete Delete named files from the archive. (Does not work
on
quarter-inch tapes).
-r
--append Append files to the end of an archive. (Does not
work on
quarter-inch tapes).
-t
--list List the contents of an archive; if filename
arguments are
given, only those files are listed, otherwise the
entire
table of contents is listed.
-u
--update Append the named files if the on-disk version has a
modi-
fication date more recent than their copy in the
archive
(if any). Does not work on quarter-inch tapes.
-x
--extract
--get Extract files from an archive. The owner,
modification
time, and file permissions are restored, if
possible. If
no file arguments are given, extract all the files
in the
archive. If a filename argument matches the name of
a
directory on the tape, that directory and its
contents are
extracted (as well as all directories under that
direc-
tory). If the archive contains multiple entries
corre-
sponding to the same file (see the --append command
above), the last one extracted will overwrite all
earlier
versions.
OPTIONS
The other options to tar may be combined arbitrarily; single-letter
options may be bundled in with the command word. Verbose options
which
take arguments will be followed by the argument; single-letter
options
will consume successive command line arguments (see the EXAMPLES
below).
--help Prints a message listing and briefly
describing
all the command options to tar.
--atime-preserve Restore the access times on files which are
writ-
ten to tape (note that this will change the
inode-change time!).
-b
--block-size number Sets the block size for reading or writing
to
number * 512-byte blocks.
-B
--read-full-blocks Re-assemble short reads into full blocks
(for
reading 4.2BSD pipes).
-C directory
--directory directory Change to directory before processing the
remain-
ing arguments.
--checkpoint Print number of buffer reads/writes while
read-
ing/writing the archive.
-f [hostname:]file
--file [hostname:]file Read or write the specified file (default
is
/dev/sa0). If a hostname is specified, tar
will
use rmt(8) to read or write the specified
file on
a remote machine. ``-'' may be used as a
file-
name, for reading or writing to/from
stdin/std-
out.
--force-local Archive file is local even if it has a
colon.
-F file
--info-script file
--new-volume-script file

DESCRIPTION
Tar is short for ``tape archiver'', so named for historical
reasons; the
tar program creates, adds files to, or extracts files from an
archive
file in tar format, called a tarfile. A tarfile is often a
magnetic
tape, but can be a floppy diskette or any regular disk file.
The first argument word of the tar command line is usually a
command word
of bundled function and modifier letters, optionally preceded by a
dash;
it must contain exactly one function letter from the set A, c, d,
r, t,
u, x, for append, create, difference, replace, table of contents,
update,
and extract (further described below). The command word can also
contain
other function modifiers described below, some of which will take
argu-
ments from the command line in the order they are specified in the

modi-
fiers can also be specified with the GNU argument convention
(preceded by
two dashes, one function or modifier per word. Command-line
arguments
that specify files to add to, extract from, or list from an archive
may
be given as shell pattern matching strings.

-d
--diff
--compare Find differences between files in the archive and
corre-
sponding files in the file system.
--delete Delete named files from the archive. (Does not work
on
quarter-inch tapes).
-r
--append Append files to the end of an archive. (Does not
work on
quarter-inch tapes).
-t
--list List the contents of an archive; if filename
arguments are
given, only those files are listed, otherwise the
entire
table of contents is listed.
-u
--update Append the named files if the on-disk version has a
modi-
fication date more recent than their copy in the
archive
(if any). Does not work on quarter-inch tapes.
-x
--extract
--get Extract files from an archive. The owner,
modification
time, and file permissions are restored, if
possible. If
no file arguments are given, extract all the files
in the
archive. If a filename argument matches the name of
a
directory on the tape, that directory and its
contents are
extracted (as well as all directories under that
direc-
tory). If the archive contains multiple entries
corre-
sponding to the same file (see the --append command
above), the last one extracted will overwrite all
earlier
versions.
OPTIONS
The other options to tar may be combined arbitrarily; single-letter
options may be bundled in with the command word. Verbose options
which
take arguments will be followed by the argument; single-letter
options
will consume successive command line arguments (see the EXAMPLES
below).
--help Prints a message listing and briefly
describing
all the command options to tar.
--atime-preserve Restore the access times on files which are
writ-
ten to tape (note that this will change the
inode-change time!).
-b
--block-size number Sets the block size for reading or writing
to
number * 512-byte blocks.
-B
--read-full-blocks Re-assemble short reads into full blocks

--checkpoint Print number of buffer reads/writes while
read-
ing/writing the archive.
-f [hostname:]file
--file [hostname:]file Read or write the specified file (default
is
/dev/sa0). If a hostname is specified, tar
will
use rmt(8) to read or write the specified
file on
a remote machine. ``-'' may be used as a
file-
name, for reading or writing to/from
stdin/std-
out.
--force-local Archive file is local even if it has a
colon.
-F file
--info-script file
--new-volume-script file
Run a script at the end of each archive
volume
(implies -M).

incremental
backup.
-g file
--listed-incremental file

--block-compress Block the output of compression program for
tapes
or floppies (otherwise writes will be of
odd
length, which device drivers may reject).
-[0-7][lmh] Specify tape drive and density.
ENVIRONMENT
The environment variable TAR_OPTIONS can hold a set of default
options
for tar. These options are interpreted first and can be
overwritten by
explicit command line parameters.
EXAMPLES
To create an archive on tape drive /dev/sa0 with a block size of 20
blocks, containing files named bert and ernie, you can enter
tar cfb /dev/sa0 20 bert ernie
or
tar --create --file /dev/sa0 --block-size 20 bert ernie
Note that the -f and -b flags both require arguments, which they
take
from the command line in the order they were listed in the command
word.
Because /dev/sa0 is the default device, and 20 is the default block
size,
the above example could have simply been
tar c bert ernie
To extract all the C sources and headers from an archive named
backup.tar, type
tar xf backup.tar '*.[ch]'
Note that the pattern must be quoted to prevent the shell from
attempting
to expand it according the files in the current working directory
(the
shell does not have access to the list of files in the archive, of
course).
To move file hierarchies, use a command line like this:
tar -cf - -C srcdir . | tar xpf - -C destdir
To create a compressed archive on diskette, using gzip(1), use a
command-
line like
tar --block-compress -z -c -v -f /dev/fd1a -b 36 tar/
Note that you cannot mix bundled flags and --style flags; you can
use
single-letter flags in the manner above, rather than having to type
tar --block-compress --gzip --verbose --file /dev/fd1a
--block-size
20 tar/
The above-created diskette can be listed with
tar tvfbz /dev/fd1a 36
To join two tar archives into a single archive, use
tar Af archive1.tar archive2.tar
which will add the files contained in archive2.tar onto the end of
archive1.tar (note that this can't be done by simply typing
cat archive2.tar >> archive1.tar
because of the end-of-file block at the end of a tar archive).
To archive all files from the directory srcdir, which were modified
after
Feb. 9th 1997, 13:00 h, use
tar -c -f backup.tar --newer-mtime 'Feb 9 13:15 1997' srcdir/
Other possible time specifications are `02/09/97 13:15',
`1997-02-09
13:15', `13:15 9 Feb 1997', `9 Feb 1997 13:15', `Feb. 9, 1997
1:15pm',
`09-Feb', `3 weeks ago' or `May first Sunday'. To specify the
correct
time zone use either e.g. `13:15 CEST' or `13:15+200'.
ENVIRONMENT
The tar program examines the following environment variables.
POSIXLY_CORRECT Normally, tar will process flag arguments that
appear in
the file list. If set in the environment, this
causes
tar to consider the first non-flag argument to
terminate
flag processing, as per the POSIX specification.
SHELL In interactive mode, a permissible response to the
prompt is to request to spawn a subshell, which
will be
/bin/sh unless the SHELL variable is set.
TAPE Changes tar's default tape drive (which is still
over-
ridden by the -f flag).
TAR_RSH The TAR_RSH environment variable allows you to
override
the default shell used as the transport for tar.
FILES
/dev/sa0 The default tape drive.
COMPATIBILITY
The -y is a FreeBSD localism. The GNU tar maintainer has now
choosen -j
as the offical bzip2(1) compression option in GNU tar 1.13.18 and
later.
The -I option is for compatibility with Solaris's tar.

bzip2(1), compress(1), gzip(1), pax(1), rmt(8)
HISTORY
The tar format has a rich history, dating back to Sixth Edition
UNIX.
The current implementation of tar is the GNU implementation, which
origi-
nated as the public-domain tar written by John Gilmore.

BUGS
The -C feature does not work like historical tar programs, and is
proba-
bly untrustworthy.
The -A command should work to join an arbitrary number of tar
archives
together, but it does not; attempting to do so leaves the
end-of-archive
blocks in place for the second and subsequent archives.
The tar file format is a semi fixed width field format, and the
field for
device numbers were designed for 16 bit (8 major, 8 minor) and can
not
absorb our 32 bit (8 major, 16+8 minor) numbers.
