[Desktop-packages] [Bug 989750] Re: repeatedly asks for encryption password when backing up, even though "remember password" is ticked

@Joseph: When Vej wrote "the first backup", I think he meant "a full backup" (as opposed to an incremental backup), not the actual first backup of your documents. You can force a full backup by backing up to a new location, e.g. a different folder on the server/disk that you are backing up to. Don't forget to log Déjà-Dup's output in case the issue occurs. Beware that a full backup can take some time, depending on how much data you have, so when running tests, you may want to only backup a few files and folders.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 989750] Re: repeatedly asks for encryption password when backing up, even though "remember password" is ticked
Added this bug to the Duplicity project, as it looks more like a bug in Duplicity than a bug in Déjà-Dup, judging from the currently available log files. Also it's worth noticing that the GPG error reported by Joseph Hedgcorth in comment 24 is not the same as the GPG error reported by Mathias Binke in comment 15, so these two reporters may encounter different issues resulting in the same GPG error code (31). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to deja-dup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/989750 Title: repeatedly asks for encryption password when backing up, even though "remember password" is ticked Status in Déjà Dup: Confirmed Status in Duplicity: New Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I've set deja-dup to back up automatically, and to encrypt files.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 989750] Re: repeatedly asks for encryption password when backing up, even though "remember password" is ticked
Status changed to "Confirmed" because some users are still affected, on recent Ubuntu releases. We still don't have enough information for triaging though. Everyone affected, please provide the full log when replicating the problem, not just the GPG error: $ DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 deja-dup --backup > deja-dup.log You may want to scrub the log of any incriminating file names or details. Also, if the log is really too large, limit it to e.g. the last 1000 lines or whatever number of lines is enough to include enough information about the issue: $ DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 deja-dup --backup | tail -n 1000 > deja-dup.log Also of interest may be your settings (please scrub the file of any incriminating file names or details): $ gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.DejaDup > deja-dup.gsettings And I've also found in the past that the content of Déjà-Dup's cache directory could provide valuable insight over the available backup chains: $ ls -lR .cache/deja-dup/ > deja-dup.cachedir Thanks. ** Also affects: deja-dup Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: deja-dup Status: New => Confirmed ** Also affects: duplicity Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to deja-dup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/989750 Title: repeatedly asks for encryption password when backing up, even though "remember password" is ticked Status in Déjà Dup: Confirmed Status in Duplicity: New Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I've set deja-dup to back up automatically, and to encrypt files.

I already have the ownership of that folder, so that does not seem to be the problem for me. I did, however, try activating deja-dup logs like you did.

I am experiencing this problem in 14.04 (it started recently, I don't remember exactly when).
