Hello Christopher. This looks strange to me (the code for that slider is really simple). So we need to examine this further.
Can you please try if you can reproduce this on your machine using a local backup and a backup to an external harddrive? This might help the developers to find the problematic code. Another helpfull thing would be the file /tmp/deja-dup.log after performing the following steps: 1. Start your affected network backup using the command "DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 deja-dup --backup | tail -n 1000 > /tmp/deja-dup.log" from a terminal 2. Interrupt your backup by changing the value of the slider. 3. Scrub any incriminating file- and usernames from /tmp/deja-dup.log, before uploading.

So I would naturally go to the deja-dup control panel and turn the "auto" slider to OFF in the schedule tab. Doing this causes an immediate failure of the backup *in progress* and Deja Dup crashes, with the following report in the GUI window: 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 1508, in do_backup incremental_backup(sig_chain) File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 662, in incremental_backup globals.backend) File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 425, in write_multivol at_end = gpg.GPGWriteFile(tarblock_iter, tdp.name, globals.gpg_profile, globals.volsize) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/gpg.py", line 336, in GPGWriteFile bytes_to_go = data_size - get_current_size() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/gpg.py", line 328, in get_current_size return os.stat(filename).st_size OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/meuser/.cache/deja-dup/tmp/duplicity-UZ4QXC-tempdir/mktemp-IKK_2v-369' ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.10 Package: deja-dup 34.2-0ubuntu3.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.8.0-37.39-generic 4.8.16 Uname: Linux 4.8.0-37-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.3-0ubuntu8.2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Tue Feb 14 20:54:19 2017 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-02-12 (368 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Release amd64 (20151021) SourcePackage: deja-dup UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to yakkety on 2017-01-21 (24 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deja-dup/+bug/1664794/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
