3. What I expected to happen
Configure an SMB share as the network location to save my backups. I am
using the same share that works with the Gnome File manager.
4. What happens instead:
I get a permission denied error when trying to use a SMB share as the
storage location.
This share is mountable and read/writeable through the same path when
accessing it with the Gnome File manager. Its unclear from the error
what causes the failure or what I should be doing differently. I set the
path to smb://mycloudex2ultra.local/bkup/, the folder to deja-dup and
enter the correct username, domain, and password in the pop up dialog.
Running with DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 shows the path as
DUPLICITY: . Args: /usr/bin/duplicity --include=/home/tomg/.cache/deja-
dup/metadata --exclude=/home/tomg/Downloads
--exclude=/home/tomg/.local/share/Trash --exclude=/home/tomg/.cache
/deja-dup --exclude=/home/tomg/.cache --include=/home/tomg
--exclude=/sys --exclude=/run --exclude=/proc --exclude=/var/tmp
--exclude=/tmp --exclude=/home/tomg/snap/*/*/.cache

--volsize=25 / gio+smb://mycloudex2ultra.local/winston-bkup/deja-dup
--verbosity=9 --archive-dir=/home/tomg/.cache/deja-dup --tempdir=/tmp
--log-fd=26
and reveals this error:
