Yes, this is clear as per design of the glacier storage backend. However, the problem ist not the restore action, the problem is that when duplicity wants to restart a backup (because e.g. the upload failed recently) it wants to download the latest archive to verify the use of the same keys.
This is not possible with glacier and therefore if the upload of a backup to glacier fails the backup can never be continued. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to duplicity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875937 Title: Download of vol1 in validate_encryption_settings() fails when using S3 glacier Status in Duplicity: Triaged Status in duplicity package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Duplicity version: 0.8.12.1612 ubuntu 20.04 LTS python 3.8.2 When i try to restart a backup which goes to S3 (via boto3) (use of: --s3-use-deep-archive or --s3-use-glacier) it fails: Last full backup date: Wed Apr 29 17:45:32 2020 RESTART: Volumes 2 to 2 failed to upload before termination. Restarting backup at volume 2. Attempt 1 failed. ClientError: An error occurred (InvalidObjectState) when calling the GetObject operation: The operation is not valid for the object's storage class Attempt 2 failed. ClientError: An error occurred (InvalidObjectState) when calling the GetObject operation: The operation is not valid for the object's storage class This is because a file stored in glacier cannot be downloaded. I dont know if this known? To solve this: either skip validate_encryption_settings() when using any of this storage backends or introduce an option to skip the download manually (e.g. --skip-download-on-restart) I fixed it for me with manully skipping the validate_encryption_settings() function.
