Public bug reported:
I have a backup location on a Samba share, which is reachable under an URL of
the form
smb://MyGroup;myname@myservername/myname/deja-dup
Backing from the main Gui (using "Backup now") or using "deja-dup
--backup" from the commandline works without problems. However automatic
backups do not work. If I start deja-dup-monitor by hand, I get the
following error whenever it tries to perform a backup:
** (deja-dup-monitor:22068): WARNING **: Network.vala:48: Error
resolving 'myservername': Name or service not known
This seems to happen in the function can_reach, which itself seems to
call the GTK network library. I already checked whether the function is
called with the correct url by inserting a bit of debug code into the
can_reach function, and it does indeed use the correct url. So the error
IMHO seems to be on the network library side.
Ubuntu Release:
Ubuntu 13.10
Deja-dup Package:
27.3.1-0ubuntu1 0
Additional Information:
I use the KDE Desktop environment (4.11.2) and the passwords are to my
knowledge all saved in the KDE Keyring (KDE Wallet Manager).
What I expect to happen:
I expect the automatic backup to an smb share to work
What happened instead:
Automatic Backups are not performed and I always have to initiate the backup by
hand.
