New question #143932 on Duplicity: https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/143932
Hi! This might be trivial, but I can not figure out how to do a backup from a remote source to a local target with duplicity. When I simply do: FTP_PASSWORD=xyz duplicity --no-encryption ftp://my.ftp/myfolder /my/local/backup/folder/ duplicity assumes I want to restore a backup from remote to local and then fails to do so due to the lack of any existing backups: NcFTP version is 3.2.5 Local and Remote metadata are synchronized, no sync needed. Last full backup date: none Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1245, in <module> with_tempdir(main) File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1238, in with_tempdir fn() File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1192, in main restore(col_stats) File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 539, in restore restore_get_patched_rop_iter(col_stats)): File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 561, in restore_get_patched_rop_iter backup_chain = col_stats.get_backup_chain_at_time(time) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/duplicity/collections.py", line 939, in get_backup_chain_at_time raise CollectionsError("No backup chains found") CollectionsError: No backup chains found When I explicitely specify "incremental" or "full" like: FTP_PASSWORD=xyz duplicity --no-encryption ftp://my.ftp/myfolder /my/local/backup/folder/ I get a "command line error: "--incremental option cannot be used when restoring or verifying" What am I doing wrong? -- You received this question notification because you are a member of duplicity-team, which is an answer contact for Duplicity. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
