Hi Nikolaus
I went through the following steps:
1. I created a local s3ql filesystem in a subdirectory of an external
drive.
2. I copied around 5TB of data into it.
3. I uploaded the external drive to Amazon S3.
4. I expected to be able then to mount the filesystem with
s3://mydrive/subdirectory/
5. It doesn't work. I get:
raise CorruptedObjectError('Invalid metadata format: %s' % format_)
from either mount.s3ql or fsck.s3ql
6. If I try s3qladm upgrade s3://mydrive/subdirectory/ I get:
Wrong file system passphrase
Looking at the format of both s3ql_metadata and s3ql_passphrase, they
appear to have a text section at the beginning with a first line of
"s3ql_1". If I create a filesystem natively on S3, those files are pure
binary.
So, (a) have I screwed up and (b) is there any way to recover from it?
Regards
Cliff.
