However, they should be deleted immediately after use. You may get low space issues if you are backing up very large files, and don't have a lot of free temp space.bonkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02751075340848661209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347235826061875757.post-64292236940221390332009-07-21T22:29:01.436+10:002009-07-21T22:29:01.436+10:00Was using Bonkey on several Windows XP units and i...Was using Bonkey on several Windows XP units and it seems to cause Low Disk Space errors when running the backups and filling the temp directory with zipped copies of the backup files?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347235826061875757.post-27001820567291528542009-07-12T08:11:20.577+10:002009-07-12T08:11:20.577+10:00Thanks, Stoney!Thanks, Stoney!bonkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02751075340848661209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347235826061875757.post-40299220169155304772009-07-10T03:30:28.281+10:002009-07-10T03:30:28.281+10:00Dave, bonkey,

Bonkey writes the path in config.xml (inside app contents). When moved, the path is no longer correct.<br /><br />Solution: Reinstall, making sure to move Bonkey to its final location before running (exactly as the installation directions tell you to).<br /><br />Hope this helps,<br />StoneyStoneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15499895052177210493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347235826061875757.post-41599019521650627142009-06-28T03:43:28.599+10:002009-06-28T03:43:28.599+10:00I have no idea what you've done there.

I discover that the "back up group" I created (as told in your tips) to manage a copy on my server, is systematicly created also in "Volumes" in my hardisk! Then, when I sync, it copies the source both on my server AND on my HD (Volumes). That's why half of my HD space disappears. It's crazy ! What did I do wrong please ?<br />best regards<br />xavierUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07913412707850271171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347235826061875757.post-85084790056685603052009-06-26T05:02:01.486+10:002009-06-26T05:02:01.486+10:00Not entirely sure - try /var/folders or /tmpNot entirely sure - try /var/folders or /tmpbonkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02751075340848661209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347235826061875757.post-70909099860114233972009-06-24T20:30:50.951+10:002009-06-24T20:30:50.951+10:00Thanks.
