Hey, Ubuntu One Servers folks: I've seen such SSL timeouts before too. Any ideas why we'd be getting them?

[dobey (dobey)]

We've restarted some of the servers that may have been exhibiting this problem. It should work OK now. Please try again and let us now. Thanks.

[Rainer Rohde (rainer-rohde)]

I tried it again, and it failed again with the same error...

[Rainer Rohde (rainer-rohde)]

And a third try with the same results just now.

[dobey (dobey)]

Ops guys, can you look at this? Thanks.

[Rainer Rohde (rainer-rohde)]

Different error message today (I tried to backup without encryption): "Got status code 408".

[Rainer Rohde (rainer-rohde)]

I am running an encrypted backup right now and so far it didn't fail (about 50% in).

[Rainer Rohde (rainer-rohde)]

Alright, this first backup completed without error. :)

[Mark East (feasty)]

I've just done a fresh install of the 11.10 release and set up a new ubuntuone account. I then went and turned on backups using the default settings (backup home, exclude Downloads and Wastebasket, using fairly simple password) and I get the same error as originally posted:

I just launched a backup to see what's going on and for me the error is back as well...

[Hans Harhoff Andersen (hansharhoff)]

I see the error as well. I have just deleted all previous deja dup files from ~ folder and from Ubuntu one. Then I get this error:

SSLError: The read operation timed out

Maybe deja dup should give some indication that Ubuntu One is the one to blame in this case (maybe even retry the backup).

These problems don ot seem to occur with Ubuntu One for file sync (or maybe file sync masks them better).

[Rainer Rohde (rainer-rohde)]

The error happens every now and then for me as well... Maybe it has to do with Ubuntu One being "busy" or temporarily not available?

[Pi Delport (pi-delport)]

Upstream Duplicity bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/duplicity/+bug/894234 (u1backend crashes on SSLError)

[Keith Patton (kaipee)]

I had exactly the same problem. I believe the problem stems from having the deja-dup folder in a subdirectory as the error being thrown out was:

UDFs can not be nested.

following taken from :http://askubuntu.com/questions/21621/ubuntu-one-wont-synchronize-pictures-folder
"...If you try to create a synchronized folder from something that is not an actual directory inside your home (if it is, for example, a symlink to somewhere else), or if it is a subdirectory of a synchronized folder, then the creation will fail.
If you try to do the same thing from the Terminal, you should get a slightly more verbose error message..."

"....(UDFs is what we Ubuntu One developers call synchronized folders)..."

 for me, running u1sdtool --list-folders displays
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
kaipee@zoostorm-ubuntu:~$ u1sdtool --list-folders
Folder list:
  id=0875288d-04d3-4d5d-8fd4-79142504bd1e subscribed=False path=/home/kaipee/deja-dup/zoostorm-ubuntu
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In order to fix this I changed the deja-dup settings to "Backup location: Ubuntu One" - "Folder: zoostorm-ubuntu"
(ie removing the 'deja-dup/' part, so zoostorm-ubuntu folder is not a subdirectory of anything)

Just tried it and now my machine is currently backing up to Ubuntu One as I type this

[Steven Almeroth (stavrosian)]

I can confirm that Keith Patton's suggestion worked.

I changed:

    Backup location: Ubuntu One
    Folder: deja-dup/maia

to:

    Backup location: Ubuntu One
    Folder: maia

[Keith Patton (kaipee)]

Just an update:

I have been running a weekly deja-dup backup since my first 'fix' without any errors at all.

[florin (florin-arjocu)]

I got it during the automated run, after I had the first (successful) back-up earlier today.

I shouldn't not have a my deja-dup folder in my development web server folder. I back-up to "htdocs". Could it be because I back-up sub-folders of a "htdocs" folder?

This is what I coul see in deja-dup:

SSLError: The read operation timed out

[Matt Rae (mattrae)]

Hi, this problem is continuing to exhibit itself as of 4/22/2012.

Reviewing this bug, the problem doesn't appear to be pinpointed quite yet. So far U1 servers have been restarted, the upstream bug linked to in #14 includes a patch to increase the timeout, and #15 suggests a bug when the folder synced is actually a symlink. Can anyone confirm?

Is anybody else continuing to see this? Should there be a cleaner error message when the timeout occurs?

[Daniel Centore (dcentore)]

I use symlinks heavily and I have the problem, if that helps. I do not seem to have the crash when removing the symlinks.

[Roman Yepishev (rye)]

In case of SSL errors, the presence of symlinks in the backup files are not changing anything.
The server closes the connection during the transfer for some reason, this can be due to server overload, network problems during the transfers (e.g. link saturation).

[Keith Patton (kaipee)]

I am now getting non-stop errors and fails with this.
To be honest I don't see the usefulness of his tool.

I know this isn't really the place for asking questions, but is it possible to use rsync with Ubuntu One?

[rs232 (vincenco)]

This happens to me every time it tries to do an automatic backup. Works fine when I do one manually:

[Pablo Almeida (pabloalmeidaff9)]

Looks like I found the cause of my problem here: among the folders I was
backing up was my torrent clients config folder, which had a "incomplete
píeces" folder in it. When torrents where being downloaded, duplicity
seemed like it couldn't handle those files. I still have to wait for the
next automatic backup to confirm it, though.

I also have this same problem on 12.04 lts. backing up to ubuntu-one. Hope we can have a fix soon.

[Rainer Rohde (rainer-rohde)]

This issue still pops up quite often for me too, however, it does seem that it works the next automatic try or thereafter. Maybe it's because of a server load issue, rather than a client issue?

[Keith Patton (kaipee)]

I have just completely given up on this and moved to Back In Time which uses rsync a rdiff - works great

[Pablo Almeida (pabloalmeidaff9)]

So, it looks like my problem wasn't due to torrent files after all. But
yes, I can confirm that it works next time it tries, even if automatically
(the next day). I find it too suspicious to be a server overload issue.

This patch fixed the problem for me: https://bugs.launchpad.net/duplicity/+bug/894234/comments/3

(from https://bugs.launchpad.net/duplicity/+bug/894234 , which was marked as a duplicate of this bug)

[Michael Terry (mterry)]

Increasing the timeout in ubuntuone-couch's auth module seems to have fixed this. Please report if you are using Ubuntu 12.10 or later and still experience this.

[Oliver Sauder (sao)]

I still experience those timeouts with 13.10 whereas there is no ubuntuone-couch anymore I assume this issue is now directly in duplicity?
