I added deja-dup to the bug-report so that this appears in *their* bugtracker and not the ubuntu-packages. I'm sure this is a race condition.
I get the error when I plug in my slow external HDD. Leaving it plugged in I trigger the backups again by pluggin in another USB device. As the backup-drive is already mounted there is no race-condition and the backup works. ** Also affects: deja-dup Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: deja-dup Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1062186 Title: 'Backup Failed' message when external backup drive first inserted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/deja-dup/+bug/1062186/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
