[Box Backup] Fwd: var not being fully backed up

Hi,

 I've left the extended logging overnight (am running lazy backups, so
 thought lots of logging was best.)

 grep'ing for directory paths doesn't work

 # cat messages | grep bback | grep var
 # cat messages | grep bback | grep www
 #

 what is the best way to find errors, browsing thru the messages file
 shows various...

 Jan  6 23:09:58 bbackupd[11632]: Connection made, login successful
 Jan  6 23:39:34 bbackupd[11632]: Exception caught (Common OSFileError
 (Error accessing a file. Check permissions.) 1/9), reset state and
 waiting to retry...
 Jan  6 23:39:44 bbackupd[11632]: File statistics: total file size
 uploaded 0, bytes already on server 0, encoded size 0
 Jan  6 23:39:44 bbackupd[11632]: Beginning scan of local files

 but (a) I don't know what file the error in question refers to, and
 (b) I'm running box as root (from /etc/init.d) so I can't image why
 file permission could be a problem.

 any advise ?
 Thanks,
 Nick
