I use an external USB- harddisk for backups and deja-dup is failing on getting the URI of the backup-target (g_file_get_uri). That's why the duplicity command line is not complete (see attached console output with stout, sterr, DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1).

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS SRU Justification: It is important to resolve this issue in a SRU due to Deja-Dup being a featured application in the Ubuntu Software Center. By prominently featuring Deja-Dup, it has become the de facto desktop backup solution for Ubuntu users. This bug prevents users from backing up to an external hard drive, probably the primary use case. Work-around Changing the '/apps/deja-dup/file/type' gconf setting from 'volume' to 'normal' solves the problem. This can be done by browsing to that setting with 'gconf-editor' or with the following command in the terminal: gconftool -s '/apps/deja-dup/file/type' --type string normal To unsubscribe from this bug, go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/deja-dup/+bug/569418/+subscribe -- deja-dup fails on backup to external drive with g_file_get_uri: assertion `G_IS_FILE (file)' failed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569418 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you Michael, I continue to receive similar errors as above and cannot use deja-dub for backups to either of my two external HD's, or to a separate partition on the same internal drive. None are full. As others are reporting that the PPA fix corrects their issues with these, mine must be related to something internal. I am at a loss to what my problem may be; Maybe a permissions problem. -- deja-dup fails on backup to external drive with g_file_get_uri: assertion `G_IS_FILE (file)' failed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569418 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

well I am disappointed in that 14.1 was released on may 01 to fix errors including not being able to back up to external HD's and I am not able to do this. I wonder if I should post a question in the Questions for Deja-Dup Section. I fear this bug is not being monitored now that the fix was released. I will wait another day, and maybe post in the Questions. I am also beginning to wonder if it is a problem from my end. Thouhts/comments anyone?

Changing the value from "Volume" to "Normal" fixed the problem for me as well (https://bugs.launchpad.net/deja-dup/+bug/539393/comments/6). Just out of curiosity, what caused this bug to appear? I don't remember any deja-dup update, but this bug appeared on both of my computers about 2 weeks or so ago. It is true that I changed the backup destination folder to external drive on the computer #1, but I haven't changed anything on computer #2, but this bug appeared there well. -- deja-dup fails on backup to external drive with g_file_get_uri: assertion `G_IS_FILE (file)' failed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569418 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Fixed in trunk. The global GVolumeMonitor apparently was getting cleaned up and this caused GVolume objects to not return GMounts... Which all sounds bad. I'll open a glib task to remember to file a bug upstream. For now I've worked around it by just making sure that the global GVolumeMonitor is always ref'ed when used, so it doesn't ever go to zero refs. ** Changed in: deja-dup Importance: Undecided => Critical ** Changed in: deja-dup Status: New => Fix Committed ** Changed in: deja-dup Milestone: None => 14.1 ** Changed in: deja-dup Assignee: (unassigned) => Michael Terry (mterry) ** Also affects: glib Importance: Undecided Status: New -- deja-dup fails on backup to external drive with g_file_get_uri: assertion `G_IS_FILE (file)' failed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569418 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
