>Try this then: >sh -c "ulimit -v 1000000; ulimit -n 8192; exec /usr/lib/x86_64-linux- gnu/deja-dup/deja-dup-monitor"
>It adds the ulimit -n call and may do what you need now that the systemd settings are in place. I added this and the backup did not start automatically yesterday so I tried to run it manually and am getting the permission error again: ~$ sh -c "ulimit -v 1000000; ulimit -n 8192; exec /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /deja-dup/deja-dup-monitor" sh: 1: exec: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu: Permission denied >Try running the command as: >DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 sh -c "ulimit -v 1000000; ulimit -n 8192; exec >/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /deja-dup/deja-dup-monitor" >This will create a large debug log in ~/.cache/deja-dup/. Please add that as an attachment to this bug report. The above command also gives me a permission error: ~$ DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 sh -c "ulimit -v 1000000; ulimit -n 8192; exec /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /deja-dup/deja-dup-monitor" sh: 1: exec: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu: Permission denied Trying the same command without the 'ulimit -n 8182' also gives me a permission error: ~$ DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 sh -c "ulimit -v 1000000; exec /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /deja-dup/deja-dup-monitor" sh: 1: exec: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu: Permission denied I'm not sure what's going on now. I was getting permission errors as shown above. I tried the commands using 'su' and that did not help either. Then I tried taking my original command that would auto-start the backup and that did not error but also did not start anything. Then I tried all the commands above with the logging and that did not give the permission but it also did not create a log that I can find. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1727653 Title: error: can't start new thread To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/duplicity/+bug/1727653/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
