Bug Description
Initially I couldn't get NSSBackup to mount the destination directory. It connected to the remote ftp server and actually created a directory with a name, date, time but didn't copy any files to it.
I got the following error message:
I set the report option to error and got a log:
NSSBackup 'Default Profile' Logger

I noticed that some of the errors related to python. Since I originally installed this I did a yum install python*. Although I used yum initially to install NSSBackup I thought it might be missing some python dependency. I did a yum remove nssbackup and then did a yum install nssbackup. Now it won't run at all. If I select it it says it is starting for a few seconds and then it closes and never does???
I am running Fedora 11 and since I can't open it I don't know the version of NSSBackup although I just installed it today (9/6/2009) using yum
the nssbackup.log for today as well as the .old log are empty

hi,
can you launch it through a command line and see what is written there ?
There might not be anything written in the logs but I believe something will be wirtten on the shell when you launch it.
If this shows nothing, you should try to rename ~/.config/ nssbackup/ nssbackup. conf to nssbackup.conf.old and try to relaunch the gui. This would assert if it's a configuration issue.
