Keeps making the backed up worlds directories with the same name
It is such that, that a world backup name
world.tar.bz2
becomes
hourly/world<date>.tar.bz2/world<date>.tar.bz2
And this makes it impossible for the script to function with
OSError: [Errno 21] Is a directory
When files are manually removed from their parent folders in hourly, the same happens in daily
shadowman42,
I don't understand the problem. Can you say more about it?

Gladly, apologies for not being more clear.
whenever a backup file is moved by the script(such as from the backup directory to the archive directory) , within the archive directory, there are directories created with the name world
Inside these directories, there is a single file with the same name world
This prevents the script from moving the backups stored in hourly to daily (presumably since the script expects files rather than directories) , leading to the propagation of backups in the hourly folder, never moving anywhere else
Shadowman42,
Thanks for explaining. I haven't seen that before. Will you send me your configuration file and a copy of the script? Also what operating system and version are you running? (Ubuntu 12.04, Centos 6.1, etc)? If you do that I may be able to debug the problem.

Wow facepalm, that's basic bug report etiquette, can't believe I forgot.
