There has to be something that has changed in Linuxmint (13 on) in the last number of months which is creating these problems - I cannot recover over 200 patients and I am concerned that I may not be able to fix this properly. I hate putting anything into the existing computer when I cannot properly backup du to this tmp error and nor can I do a restore for the same reason.
Okay, I used the back up script that was given in another post as I cannot create a tmp/emr_backup/openemr.tar.gz
Now went to install (using the restore script after following directions) however get:
WARNING: This script is experimental.
It may have serious bugs or omissions.
Use it at your own risk!
Now you will be asked for the backup file.
By default this is named emr_backup.tar, although you may have saved it as something else.
Enter path/name of backup file: /home/alpinehealth/openemr/emr_backup.tar
Extracting /home/alpinehealth/openemr/emr_backup.tar …
Extracting /tmp/emr_backup/openemr.tar.gz …
tar (child): …/openemr.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
Error: tar could not extract ‘/tmp/emr_backup/openemr.tar.gz’.

Any help appreciated.
