Bug Description
Using a fresh install of 11.10 with all updates, Deja-dup fails with status code 302 when trying to backup large amounts of data to Ubuntu One. I have 25Gb available, and am trying to backup 9Gb. I have a fast internet connection, and have no trouble using Unison to sync my computer with my server each night. In trying to use deja-dup with Ubuntu One however instead, the above problem occurs.
I have successfully been able to sync this data several folders at a time, rather than all my files at once. While this works, it is unacceptably slow and time consuming. I recently reinstalled 11.10, due to other issues, and of course now my backups aren't recognised anymore as a source to backup to, though they might work in a restore (haven't tried them).
Using Ubuntu One with Deja-dup is a great concept, and I have bought more storage so I can have an off-site backup for all of my business files. Presently however, I'll need to look for other solutions. Just about to try Deja-dup locally with my Ubuntu One folder as a work-around. I believe this should work, however again it's not ideal.
I love the concept of being able to backup directly to Ubuntu One, without needing a duplicate copy of material I'm backing up on my disk drive. I am very happy to help trouble-shoot this, could you let me know what I need to do? Thanks for including such a great concept into Ubuntu's past release. Cheers.
