Public bug reported: I try to do a backup onto a network location (ssh://192.168.1.61 - I can successfully connect to this location via ssh). The backup completes the scan phase, then dies with error messages like this:
Failed to read /tmp/duplicity-xdksj47v-tempdir/mktemp-_5khubio-2: (<class 'EOFError'>, EOFError('Compressed file ended before the end-of- stream marker was reached'), <traceback object at 0x7f5f660da740>) While the backup is running, we can see a duplicity* directory under /tmp: $ ll /tmp/duplicity-i6olpr17-tempdir/ total 16 drwx------ 2 scohen scohen 4096 Apr 24 12:52 ./ drwxrwxrwt 26 root root 12288 Apr 24 12:52 ../ -rw------- 1 scohen scohen 0 Apr 24 12:52 mkstemp-cx21bs8l-1 However, note that this is not the directory mentioned in the failure message. A scan of the directory after the failure reveals no files like /tmp/dupl* Why is it trying to read files that do not exist? $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Release: 22.04 $ apt-cache policy duplicity duplicity: Installed: 0.8.21-1build1 Candidate: 0.8.21-1build1 Version table: *** 0.8.21-1build1 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: duplicity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970124 Title: duplicity backup fails with obscure error message Ubuntu 22.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/duplicity/+bug/1970124/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
