[Duplicity-talk] error accessing googledocs

[Norman Goldstein]

I'm sorry for bringing this up, again (I thought I had it all worked out).
In a nutshell, I get this error running duplicity:

BackendException:

Please read the manpage to fix.

Here are is the result of "pip list" on Fedora 23 x86-64.
I assume these versions are sufficiently up-to-date?
No patches are needed? (like pydrivebackend.patch ?)

When you installed 0.7.06, did you first remove the repo version? The
tarball and the repo versions quite often install in conflicting places.

Duplicity 0.7.07.1 has been released. You might want to install this to
get the latest.

I installed duplicity 0.7.06 through the repo.
However, I installed PyDrive using pip, directly.

At the python prompt,

Post by Kenneth Loafman

import pydrive

does not complain, so duplicity should be finding the PyDrive package.
Unfortunately, the error can refer to any problem in the setting up of
the credentials.

Any suggestion how I can check that my google authorization is
correctly set up?

Here is the problem:

From line 36 of pydrivebackend.py

from oauth2client.client import SignedJwtAssertionCredentials

SignedJwtAssertionCredentials has been removed from oauth2client .

I will try the newer version of duplicity, as suggested ...

Using 7.7 fixed the problem ... thanks.

My distribution just seems never to catch up with duplicity :-)

I use duplicity 0.7.7.1 on Fedora 23 x86-64.

I did a successful restore with duplicity,
but there were supposed errors of the form:

Writing config.pl of type reg
Error '[Errno 1] Operation not permitted:
'/home/transient/systems/Duplicity/temp/config.pl''
processing config.pl

However, config.pl /was/ properly written to the destination directory.

I was not able to find in the duplicity code base where this
message was originating. It may be that I am having this annoyance,
because I did a not-from-repo install of duplicity, and maybe some of
its support packages need to be newer, too.

this usually happens when restoring as a non-root user. duplicity tries to restore file owner/permissions which is only allowed to root.
