Hi Folks, I occasionally encounter an error that terminates a backup and requires a "--check-destination-dir" run to recover.
The error seems to be associated with gzip.py being asked to do a negative seek in write mode. The docs for gzip.py explicitly say it can't do this. I'm not sure about which file(s) cause this error, bit it might be one of the firefox user .cache files. This is on an openSUSE 13.2 Linux system with rdiff-backup 1.2.8. Any ideas? File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/gzip.py", line 423, in seek raise IOError('Negative seek in write mode') IOError: Negative seek in write mode Thanks, Lew _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at rdiff-backup-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
