Bug#1082048: restic is running forever

[Félix Sipma]

Please keep the bug opened, it may also be a Debian specific problem related to the version of the backblaze lib (or another lib) we use in Debian.

Regards,

You should probably give more logs, get a minimal reproducible example, try to bisect between different restic or lib versions, etc. if you want this bug to be fixed... "It worked for years but hangs now" is not super useful debugging data.

Dear Félix,

A bunch of thanks for your prompt and helpful response.

Hi Sebastien,

Thanks for your report. It's a bit hard to debug without more information,
but it sounds like a bug that should be reported upstream. Could you fill a
bug at https://github.com/restic/restic/issues following the "Bug report"
template?

Oh, I realise I have missed the template, apologies for that.

The issue has been openeed, though, see
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/5066

Did you check your quota or settings on Backblaze?

I didn't prior to reporting the bug but did so afterwards and AFAICT
everything seems in order. Plus, as I wrote on the GitHub issue, I do
have the alerts enabled so I expect I would have been notified if there
was an issue witth the quotas (what BackBlaze calls the caps, I think).

You can use "DEBUG_LOG=/tmp/restic-debug.log restic backup ..." to get some
(hopefully) useful data.

Thank you! It's a gigantic log with some private information in it so I
was notvery sure where to look, I could just observe that nothing got
printed to the log for a very long time.

I guess you can close the report here and the discussion will continue
on the GH issue.

Thanks again for your support Félix and for your hard maintenance work
in general.

With my best wishes and warmest regards,

Seb.
