Using the default (apt) deja-dup with the online accoutns in ubuntu 18.04. I found out a workaround for this. If you keep the session open manually by reading a file over and over you can reset the timer described here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues/360
Basically after keeping a session open on only a specific folder, there is a limit of 100 access things (reads, writes, etc.) and then the connection stales. While the backup is running in the background, you have to manually browse the root of the google drive in nautilus every 5-10 minutes (file explorer) and reset that counter. You might get some errors like authentication failed but keep refreshing the root folder till you're able to browse files again. It finally completed my backup. This looks so easy to fix in the code tough and not sure why no one picked this up to fix this earlier. ** Bug watch added: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues #360 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues/360 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to deja-dup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1747646 Title: Authentication error with google drive Status in Déjà Dup: Fix Released Status in Duplicity: Invalid Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Hi, I'm having an issue using deja-dup to back up my laptop to my google drive. When backing only a small folder (eg: ~/Documents) every thing works fine. However when trying to backup my whole home folder (/home/myusername) I get an "Invalid credentials" error after 5-10 min. The back up seems to start normally and my destination folder starts filling with "duplicity-full...difftar.gz" files, but eventually I get the Invalid Credentials error. lsb_release -d Fedora release 27 (Twenty Seven) rpm -q deja-dup duplicity deja-dup-37.1-1.fc27.x86_64 duplicity-0.7.16-1.fc27.x86_64 deja-dup.log attached. I cannot attach deja-dup.gsettings since i can only join 1 file. Will send if needed.
