I recently did a fresh install of 6.10. And have not been able to configure sbackup from the gui. I can run sbackupd successfully, though it would be nice to be able to configure it through the GUI.
Here are the error's I receive:
bryce@ubuntu:~$ sudo simple-backup-config
(simple-backup-config:26476): libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Failed to open session DBUS connection: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
Volume monitoring will not work.
--This opens the window fine, however when I click on use recommended backup settings, and then save the following occurs:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/simple-backup-config", line 490, in on_main_radio_group_changed

File "/usr/lib/python2.4/ConfigParser.py", line 511, in get
raise NoSectionError(section)
ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'places'
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Hi I think the DBUS error message is not fatal, but there seem to be a few bugs in the Ubuntu 6.10 version of the simple-backup-config script. See here for a potential solution:
