/bin/sh: 1: %NPBACKUP_BACKEND_BINARY%: not found

[GuitarBilly]

npbackup-gui v3.0.0-rc14
Linux 6.8.0-52-generic #53~22.04.1-Ubuntu x86_64

steps to reproduce:
I used an existing working configuration from v3.0.0-rc13 with rest-server backend.
As per #123 filled in a Pre exec instruction %NPBACKUP_BACKEND_BINARY% cache --cleanup
When I launch the backup I get an error:

Pre-execution of command %NPBACKUP_BACKEND_BINARY% cache --cleanup failed with:
/bin/sh: 1: %NPBACKUP_BACKEND_BINARY%: not found
Stopping further execution due to fatal error

expected behaviour:
npbackup should execute restic or announce on startup it cannot find the restic binary?

Not a bug here ^^
%NPBACKUP_BACKEND_BINARY% is the variable name for windows.
On linux, it should be ${NPBACKUP_BACKEND_BINARY}.

ah yes, the beauties of differences between OS'es.

you are absolutely right, when updated it works on linux:
( i put echo ${NPBACKUP_BACKEND_BINARY} as a trial )
