Hi ede/everyone,
To investigate why duplicity wasn't restoring the email files which I mentioned
then I ran this:
duplicity restore -v9 --file-to-restore home/awood/.thunderbird
file:///run/media/awood/MyPassport/Deja-Vu-Back-up/ home/awood/.thunderbird >
output.txt
I've attached the outputfile which is 3.7 MB. There were also some libsync
errors which I guess were being output on stderr?
Best wishes,
Andrew

Hello,
I hope you're keeping. I've run into a difficult with duplicity and I am at a
loss to understand the difficulty. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I have been using Déjà Dup on Fedora 33 for weekly backups of my home directory
which includes a hidden Thunderbird directory. I installed Fedora 35 and tried
using restore (Backups 42.8). While this has successfully restored most of the
files, it hasn't been successful with some Thunderbird files - but not all of
them!
For example:
/home/awood/Documents/myDocuments/Thunderbird-gnapcorg10nov2021/pop.gn.apc.org/Mail/Local
Folders/Inbox
/home/awood/Documents/myDocuments/Thunderbird-gnapcorg10nov2021/pop.gn.apc.org/Mail/Local
Folders/Inbox.msf
/home/awood/Documents/myDocuments/Thunderbird-gnapcorg10nov2021/pop.gn.apc.org/Mail/Local
Folders/Sent
/home/awood/Documents/myDocuments/Thunderbird-gnapcorg10nov2021/pop.gn.apc.org/Mail/Local
Folders/Sent.msf
/home/awood/Documents/myDocuments/Thunderbird-gnapcorg10nov2021/pop.gn.apc.org/Mail/Local
Folders/Trash
/home/awood/Documents/myDocuments/Thunderbird-gnapcorg10nov2021/pop.gn.apc.org/Mail/Local
Folders/Trash.msf
At the end of the restore then these files are listed along with 'Could not
restore the following files. Please make sure you are able to write to them.'
I can't think of any reason why they couldn't be written - there's definitely
space on the disk. I also tried to restore the back-up on Ubuntu and I had the
same message.
Any suggestions? Thank-you.
hey Andrew,
we need more details. could you please run duplicity with maximum
verbosity '-v9' and put the full command line output to pastebin or
the like and post the link here? obfuscate information you deem
private in it beforehand!
