RE: Trouble running 1.2's hot-backup.py

This is a typical problem with scripts that have a sh-bang (#!) line and
mixed line endings. The shell tries to find the executable to re-exec the
script in, and can't find anything called '/usr/bin/python^M' (or whatever
the interpreter is supposed to be with the extra DOS line ending char
appended).

Certainly one of the more confusing errors that Unix spits out...

Subject: Trouble running 1.2's hot-backup.py

Hello,

I'm not sure if this was already discussed by someone else or not.

When I installed version 1.2 from source on Mandrake Linux 2005, I was
unable to run hot-backup.py. Every time I tried to run the script, I
would get: ': No such file or directory'.

I order to get hot-backup.py to work, I converted the file from dos
format to unix format. That seemed to do the trick... It's running
now...
