I am running Ubuntu 16.04 with the built in Deja-Dup program. I have had this running now for almost a year, doing daily backups to an external HDD. Now I have hit a wall, I have a few programs not working properly, so I Googled help and tried, unsucessfuly, to repair the faults. So, I thought I will do a restore and cure the problems that way. I have noticed that due to errors, the backup hasn't been run for the last 30 days. I will paste the errors found on restore and hope someone out there knows a lot more than I do, which is basically nothing.
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1532, in <module> with_tempdir(main) File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1526, in with_tempdir fn() File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1380, in main do_backup(action) File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1405, in do_backup globals.archive_dir).set_values() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/collections.py", line 710, in set_values self.get_backup_chains(partials + backend_filename_list) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/collections.py", line 835, in get_backup_chains add_to_sets(f) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/collections.py", line 823, in add_to_sets if set.add_filename(filename): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/collections.py", line 105, in add_filename (self.volume_name_dict, filename) AssertionError: ({1: 'duplicity-inc.20170805T231519Z.to.20170806T230615Z.vol1.difftar.gz'}, 'duplicity-inc.20170805T231519Z.to.20170806T230615Z.vol1.difftar')
A thing I noticed, looking for directory usr/bin/duplicity. that it is not listed as a folder in /bin...... Must mean something, but what and how doI repair the machine.
