Bug Description

I ran my backup for the first time, after some time, I got the following error message:

"Backup Failed

Giving up after 5 attempts. Error: g-io-error-quark: Unknown reason (0)"

I think this is a bug, because the error message doesn't tell me what happened and how that can be fixed.

Had the same issue, reason for it was full target file system (in my case accessed via ssh using key authentication). After freeing space there, backup finished normally, but yes error description is more than confusing.

I believe the problem was due to the drive being full. Deja-Dup (Backups) writes 2 copies, the older one being a safety copy. I have changed the size of the external backup drive to a larger drive. I believe this is/was the problem.

Set to "Confirmed", because the bug has been reported by several users.

Changed in deja-dup:
status: New → Confirmed
importance: Undecided → High

Can someone with this bug provide the output of "DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 deja-dup --backup | tail -n 1000 > /tmp/deja-dup.log" please?

I should add to my comment(#8), above, that the _sending_ machine is running 18.04 LTS desktop, the _receiving_ machine is running 16.04.4 LTS server and deja-dup is backing-up over an ssh connection.
