Hi there..

tried to backup my data today after about a month i got some weird
errors and the backup wouldn't run..
here are those errors.. http://pastebin.com/m4328ce27

Hi Anirudh,

There was a failure when trying to read the file:

/media/disk-1/rdiff-backup-data/increments/Docs/Documents & Books/1000 Hacker Tutorials 2008/200 Hacking Tutorials/FREE Hosting For WAREZ.txt. 2008-11-09T12:48:35+05:30.snapshot.gz

How does that file look to you? Is /media/disk-1/ full by any chance? Perhaps a filesystem check is in order.

One way to recover from this error would be copy over that file with a replacement (since it is a .snapshot.gz).

If that file is on your main disk, for example:

/home/anirudh/Docs/Documents & Books/1000 Hacker Tutorials 2008/200 Hacking Tutorials/FREE Hosting For WAREZ.txt

Do:

$ cp /home/anirudh/Docs/Documents & Books/1000 Hacker Tutorials 2008/200 Hacking Tutorials/FREE Hosting For WAREZ.txt /tmp/foo

$ gzip /tmp/foo

$ cp /tmp/foo.gz /media/disk-1/rdiff-backup-data/increments/Docs/ Documents & Books/1000 Hacker Tutorials 2008/200 Hacking Tutorials/ FREE Hosting For WAREZ.txt.2008-11-09T12:48:35+05:30.snapshot.gz
