I think Ivan is right. I'm also backing up my system over ssh to my server.
I can restore my backups to any place *inside* my home directory on my local machine, but I when I try to restore to some other place outside my home dir it prompts for my password and fails with the same Duplicity Error 38. But I don't understand why it asks for root permissions when I try to restore to another mounted partition (/media/shareddata in my case) to which I already do have write permissions? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876070 Title: Backup cannot be restored on a fresh install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deja-dup/+bug/876070/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
