Re: [rdiff-backup-users] Problem with rdiff-backup
The problem appears to be with some non-ASCII characters. What filesystems are you backing up to/from? Try with the switches --null-separator and/or --override-chars-to-quote, or if you are already using them, try without!

Since this weekend (and i also remember that problem to have occured earlier) i have a problem with rdiff-backup. When I try to backup my files (with the same command a always used) i get the following error (see below). At first a few notes on my behavior: I normally backup all my files with the command see below. Because that did not work with the following response: [root@Banjo Benji]# rdiff-backup '/home/Benji' '/media/Banjos_Wissen/Backup-Banjo' Previous backup seems to have failed, regressing destination now. ^[[D^[[DSpecialFileError .gdesklets/sockets/%3A0.0 Socket error: AF_UNIX path too long ListError .gtk-bookmarks/.gvfs [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/Benji/.gvfs' UpdateError Downloads/rdiff-backup.tmp.64562 [Errno 84] Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character: '/media/Banjos_Wissen/Backup-Banjo/rdiff-backup-data/increments/Downloads/330 - Der Kampf der Strohh\x81tte.avi.2011-02-18T00:21:06+01:00.missing' ... I then tried the following 15. from: http://www.nongnu.org/rdiff-backup/FAQ.html#regress_failure But also that did not help. I then tried to make a whole new backup of my files with the following response: [root@Banjo Desktop]# rdiff-backup '/home/Benji' '/media/Banjos_Wissen/Banjos_Backup' ListError .gtk-bookmarks/.gvfs [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/Benji/.gvfs' OSError while renaming /media/Banjos_Wissen/Banjos_Backup/Downloads/rdiff-backup.tmp.40180 to /media/Banjos_Wissen/Banjos_Backup/Downloads/330 - Der Kampf der Strohh�tte.avi UpdateError Downloads/rdiff-backup.tmp.40180 [Errno 84] Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character ... That is the present problem, but I really like the simplicity of rdiff-backup and don´t wanna change so please help me. Thx. to you - Benjamin D.

Re: [rdiff-backup-users] New GUI for rdiff-backup: JBackpack
I can run rdiff-backup 1.2.8 fine on Windows 7 64-bit. Edited from http://www.nongnu.org/rdiff-backup/: On Windows, rdiff-backup requires the Visual C++ 2008 redistributable. Download DLL package http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/rdiff-backup/Microsoft.VC90.zip and copy the four files into the same directory as rdiff-backup.exe.

Now it's my turn again to repeat the apology. :-) It took a while, but I finally got my hands on a Win 7 64 bit system. The strange thing is that I even fail installing rdiff-backup manually.
