I'm using a laptop with my power settings set to "Do nothing" when the lid is closed. However, I can replicate this by starting duplicity, waiting for it to get going, then closing my laptop lid. I think Ubuntu is cleaning the temp files out from under Duplicity?
I'm using Ubuntu 16.10 (so gpg has been replaced with gpg2), gpg2 version 2.1.15, and duplicity version 0.7.07.1. It sounds like Ubuntu has changed /tmp cleanup; see this post: http://askubuntu.com/a/857154 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to duplicity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1177381 Title: Duplicity can't find its own tempdir Status in Duplicity: New Status in duplicity package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: My backups have been working normally for months, but today they failed with this error: Failed with an unknown error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1411, in <module> with_tempdir(main) File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1404, in with_tempdir fn() File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1386, in main incremental_backup(sig_chain) File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 581, in incremental_backup globals.backend) File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 394, in write_multivol vi.set_hash("SHA1", gpg.get_hash("SHA1", tdp)) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/gpg.py", line 401, in get_hash fp = path.open("rb") File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/path.py", line 542, in open result = open(self.name, mode) IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/duplicity-rWgqMw-tempdir/mktemp-fvN6e5-5' ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: deja-dup 26.0-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-19.29-generic 3.8.8 Uname: Linux 3.8.0-19-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue May 7 09:12:25 2013 InstallationDate: Installed on 2010-09-17 (962 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Beta amd64 (20100901.1) MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: deja-dup UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to raring on 2013-01-25 (101 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/duplicity/+bug/1177381/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
