Hi,
I use rdiff ever since, for some years via backupninja. Some time ago, a
backup failed, and I started to get this error message:
== fatal errors from /etc/backup.d/90.rdiff ==
Info: Removing backups older than 400D days succeeded.
Error: Previous backup seems to have failed, regressing destination now.
Warning, could not find mirror_metadata file. Metadata will be read from
filesystem instead. Fatal Error: No metadata for time Fri Dec 2 20:06:38 2016
(1480705598) found, cannot regress
Fatal: Failed backup up source
I tried the hints from
http://www.nongnu.org/rdiff-backup/FAQ.html#regress_failure
which suggests deleting duplicate current_mirror*data and moving
mirror_metadata*gz, but without success.
Maybe I deleted the wrong file. I remember solving a similar problem
some years ago succesfully this way.
I would be very grateful for any clues how to solve my problem without
starting a complete new backup.
Kind regards
Andre
