Re: [rdiff-backup-users] Error message with Extended Attributes

[Paul Cuttriss]

----------------------------------------------------------------- Detected abilities for source (read only) file system: Extended attributes On ... Detected abilities for destination (read/write) file system: Extended attributes Off rdiff-backup checks to see if it can read and write EAs on the destination filesystem, but only tries to list one on the source. Here is the relevant code: So if you want to see what is going on you could try testing xattr's listxattr, setxattr, and getxattr from the python interpreter. On the nail Ben I had the filesystem mounted with the acl option, but not the user_xattr option. Once I remounted the filesystem with 'all' the necessary options it worked a treat. /dev/mapper/vg-backup on /backup type ext3 (rw,noatime,acl,user_xattr) Thanks Paul C
