Hello, I'm getting a crash when running rdiff-backup on some large servers over ssh. However it appears to be an error with rdiff-backup. I'm not sure whether the backup is corrupt.
Index: ('long_filename_data', '1.2015-08-21T03:00:00-04:00.diff.gz') Data: {'uid': 1097, 'perms': 384, 'type': 'reg', 'gname': None, 'ctime': 1441223271, 'devloc': 64515L, 'uname': None, 'nlink': 1, 'gid': 1097, 'mtime': 923997059, 'atime': 1443562818, 'inode': 267916779, 'size': 62}' raised of class '<type 'exceptions.AssertionError'>': File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/rdiff_backup/robust.py", line 32, in check_common_error try: return function(*args) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/rdiff_backup/increment.py", line 43, in Increment incrp = makediff(new, mirror, incpref) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/rdiff_backup/increment.py", line 79, in makediff if compress: diff = get_inc(incpref, "diff.gz") File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/rdiff_backup/increment.py", line 123, in get_inc assert not incrp.lstat(), incrp It seems like rdiff-backup is failing because it sees that the file exists, and for some reason expects that it shouldn't. The file in question, once unzipped, contains the following text: 00000000 72 73 02 36 46 00 fa 00 00 |rs.6F....| 00000009 Any ideas about what is going wrong? Thanks!
