[Bug 1370363] Re: deja-dup fails reporting Permission denied, no error logs anywhere
Actually the error message is Access denied. - which is not very specific. Also, the fault might be specific to running deja-dup under a KDE desktop. Running under GNOME Flashback, I see the gcr-prompter password prompt... (from the gcr package, GNOME crypto services). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1370363 Title: deja-dup fails reporting Permission denied, no error logs anywhere To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deja-dup/+bug/1370363/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

And there we go, the workaround seems to be running these commands in sequence from the same Konsole terminal in order shown: eval $(/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=ssh) export SSH_AUTH_SOCK GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL deja-dup --backup -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1370363 Title: deja-dup fails reporting Permission denied, no error logs anywhere To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deja-dup/+bug/1370363/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1370363] Re: deja-dup fails reporting Permission denied, no error logs anywhere
So, bottom line is that: 1. deja-dup is failing to procure the necessary SSH/SFTP password, 2. failing to report the fact it does not have the SSH/SFTP password, 3. not offering an alternative way of getting the password (it is in my ssh-agent but still...) 4. failing to properly report which access in particular was denied, and what deja-dup was trying to do. Keeping the UI simple is one thing, but not reporting errors in a useful way is not a useful simplification :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1370363 Title: deja-dup fails reporting Permission denied, no error logs anywhere To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deja-dup/+bug/1370363/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
