Bug Description

Hi to all and sorry for my bad english.

I have Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with Unity.

lsb_release -d
Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

"dpkg-query -W deja-dup duplicity" tells me:
deja-dup 22.0-0ubuntu2
duplicity 0.6.18-0ubuntu3

My first Backup on T-Online-Mediacenter via WebDAV created on the T-Online-Server the Folder as I told him an the backup run correctely.

Now, the next backup shoud be performed but it does not work any more.
Deja-dup mounts the WebDAV folder correctly and then Stops with the errormessage that the Backup can not work
(Entry with same name 'my-backup-folder-at-the-server' exists)

I tried several hints I found in the Internet:

create a folder deja-dup in /
create a folder deja-dup in /BACKUP
create a folder deja-dup in / BACKUP/name-of-the-backup

Tried the PPA https://launchpad.net/~deja-dup-team/+archive/testing from the “Déjà Dup Maintainers” team

Exactly the same Problem is reported at the german ubuntuusers forum by an other person: http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/d-j-dup-entry-with-same-name-sicherung-exists/#post-4520562

 gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.DejaDup > /tmp/deja-dup.gsettings ---> only pops up the same Error-Window and the /tmp/deja-dup.log file is empty.

I hope you can help us. I think it should not be normal to do a full-backup every time.

Hi again,

And nobody in her who has any idea?
What can I do to fix the problem?
Or what further informations do You need?

Thanks a lot.

Thanks for coment this bugreport.
But I think it will be better, also to sign as "yes - it affects me" at the top of the report.
Because I still can read there "This bug affects you and 1 other person".
But You are the third (including me).
I'm waiting since JULY now for getting an answer or a fix.
