Okay, things are fine again. I did a reboot and the problem went away. I must say this is an odd occurrence, but I'll take it.
-
If I look at the LB process in System Monitor, I see ~~~ Waiting Channel iterate_dir. ~~~ Other than that, the other properties look okay. The program is active but doesn't do anything; no CPU utilization, no reads or writes, no anything. Until the update, it was fine. Now I have no idea how to fix things. I have reoved LB, and reinstalled it. That didn't help. I suppose I could reboot. So I guess I'll try that.
-
I first triesd to launch LB by clicking the icon in the Menu. The normal screen came up but the program did not do anything.. I had to stop the program. I checked the logs and saw this in the logs folrder.: command: exit code: 0 output: No program defined I also foung this in a log: =====================================execution of task : Backup My Documents to Ext Drive on CP2, startingSource : /media/Data/Destination : /nfs/Ubuntu_Data_Backup/ Failed to create destination directory -----| Backing-up...
-
Another thought. If I delete and reinstall LB, will I lose my configurations or jobs I have created?
-
I just updated my OS from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04. I use the Gnome Flashback desktop which uses alacarte for the application menus. I noticed that LB did not have an associated icon for the non superuser program but did have for the superuser one. I decided to assign the icon, but when I clicked on the Properties Bar in alacarte I got no response. So I ran alacarte in a terminal. I get the following when I click on the properties link: File "/usr/share/alacarte/Alacarte/MainWindow.py", line 451, in...

Loukas, I had to reboot my system because of some updates, and LB now runs as before. Since I could find nothing in the logs or messages, either the update fixed the problem or at least reset something that had gotten out of whack. So all is good.
-
I have done that. There are no messages. I have to go into System Monitor and End the program. The Terminal will then return to the prompt. I can start LB multiple times. If I check System Monitor, there will be that number of instances of LB shown as active, but none of them display the LB screen. It's as if LB is running but is not communicating with the display.
-
Suddenly LB started loading but does nothing. The program does not come up. It shows up in system monitor but is doing nothing. No interface to select previously defined backups, just nothing. This just started about a week ago.. What can I run to get a response? I am on Ubuntu 21.04.4.

I am running Ubuntu 20.04 x64 and was having the same issue with luckyBackup running as Super User. After adding the file Loukas gave to /usr/share/polkit-1/actions, the Super User version of LuckyBackup works fine. I don't think waiting is an option because I need luckyBackup to backup my file system.

Well, I did fsck on the source and disk is fine. I tried from client side to do fsck on target, but the system would not let me do it. I then realized the target was an NTFS disk. I decided to reformat it to ect4. After that, all files were transferred with an error because LB could not access lost+found. I fixed those permissions and am happy to report that all is well with LB.. Loukas, thanks for hanging in there with me on this. The target was NTFS from back when I had a dual boot 10 or 12 years...

I deleted the file on the target disk. When I ran the job last night, I received the same error message.

Yes, I can copy both files - the one in /nfs/Ubuntu_Data_Backup/.moneydance/Documents/Carpenter Financials.moneydance/safe//tiksync/out and the one in /media/Data/.moneydance/Documents/Carpenter Financials.moneydance/safe//tiksync/out. Those are the target and source files respectively. Once again, there is no file named .20171123183548_928.txn.AjKJ0O which is the one showing up in the error message. As you mentioned in your post, it's as if the file was copied but the temporary file was not deleted...
-
I have full permissions on the folder as well as all files in the folder. Here's something odd. I searched both the source and the target for the file .20171123183548_928.txn.AjKJ0O. There is no such file on either disk. There are files on both the source and target named 20171123183548_928.txn. No files begin with . (dot). And yes, I have Nautilus set to show hidden files. So why is LuckyBackup even referring to the file in the error message?

Loukas, I am still having this problem: IO error encountered -- skipping file deletion rsync: readlink_stat("/nfs/Ubuntu_Data_Backup/.moneydance/Documents/Carpenter Financials.moneydance/safe/tiksync/out/.20171123183548_928.txn.AjKJ0O") failed: Input/output error (5) Why is this occurring?
-
Well everything seemed to run as usual, but I got the following message: rsync: readlink_stat("/nfs/Ubuntu_Data_Backup/.moneydance/Documents/Carpenter Financials.moneydance/safe/tiksync/out/.20171123183548_928.txn.AjKJ0O") failed: Input/output error (5) What is happening here?
-
Well. I know many of the files were the same size and date, but the next run will tell us something. If it runs normally, I won't worry about it, but if it copies everything again, I must have a wrong setting.. I'll let you know. I will do a backup tonight.

Loukas, I had a systen disk go bad and had to install a new one. I booted a Live DVD of Ubuntu 18.04.5 and idid a clean install. Since I had a backup of my home directory, I restored that over the new home directory. With a nminimum of work, I got all profiles working and installed all my missing aspps. Everything was mounted at the same mount points. I opened LuckyBackup, and my jobs were there. The first job in the list is to backup my Data disk to an NFS share. What puzzeled me was LB replaced...
-
That's it. When my son and his family came home for Thansgiving, they turned off the computer in the guest bedroom. I did not know they did this. Since my wife uses that PC, after they left, she turned it back on. So my mount command showed they were still mounted, but the connection had been broken. So I had to re-export the nfs shares and restart the nfs kernel server on the pc in that room that has some of the backup drives for my LuckyBackup jobs. So, I am back in business. Thank you again, ...

Okay, that launched LB and created a new default profile. What next?

No. The cursor just stays on the next line.

Loukas, I'm back again with the same problem. LuckyBackup just stopped runnig after running correctly for months. I tried to download and use 0.5.0-1 but no luck there. I reinstall for the repositories, but no luck. From the command, I tried /usr/bin/Luckyback default from ther terminal and got the following: /usr/bin/luckybackup default ============================================================================================ Loading profile /home/butch/.luckyBackup/profiles/default.profile ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~...
-
Okay, things are back to normal. I do not know how that job was changed. It must have happened during my recovery. Perhaps that's when the "Do not create..". got out of synch. In any case my system is as it should be now. As for the other job, I backup the entire disk to that drive, so that's as it should be. Thanks for your help.
-
Okay, I unchecked the "Do Not create extra directory" then rechecked it. This time, the "My Documents" folder only contains one folder named .luckybackup-snapshots. Inside .luclybackup-snapshots, there is a folder called default.profile. Inside default.profile, there are three folders called logs, profiles, and snaps. Inside the profiles folder there is a file called called default.profile. Here are its' contents: ***************************** WARNING ***************************** Do NOT edit this...

Yes, the"Do not create extra directory" box is checked.

I had to reinstall Ubuntu and my applications because of a boot issue I could not resolve. I have a backup of my original system, so I copied some files over (the configuration files for the applications) after the fresh install. Now I'm getting a strange result from one of my jobs. Here's what I have: `Source: /media/Data/My Documents/ Destination: /nfs/Ubuntu_Data_Backup/` What LuckyBackup is doing is creating a folder named "My Documents" on Ubuntu_Data_Backup and placing all the files under My...

I uninstalled luckyBackup 0.5.0-1 and re-installed the distribution version. Everything seems to be running correctly again. I did find a post here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1732358. This may have been what I ran into. The bug doesn't say it has been fixed. It only says it doesn't affect Firefox anymore. So, I'll just stay with the distro version as it works well for me. BTW, I have been using luckyBackup for many years now, and I think it is the easiest and most...

Loukas, I installed luckyBackup 0.5.0-1 with GDebi. I could not run from the menu, so I entered /usr/bin/luckybackup from a terminal. I received the following message (luckybackup:17563): dbind-WARNING **: 00:37:12.952: Couldn't register with accessibility bus: Did not receive a reply.

I have Ubuntu 18.04.2 x64 and luckybackup 0.49. I last ran luckybackup on 2/23.19 and everything was fine. When I tried to launch it today (3/1/19). nothing happened. When I say nothing, I mean I got the message Loading luckybackup and it went away. I tried from a terminal with the command /usr/bin/luckybackup The prompt went away (i.e., focused moved to the line under the command and nothing happened. I had to enter ctrl-c to get out of the command. The only thing that has happened since my last...

That file should be default.profile
-
I am using Ubuntu 16.04 x64. On my system, I have a file named default profile in ~/.luckybackup/profiles. From this file, I can see my source, destination, and arguments used to perform the backup. You should be able to create a job to restore those backups to the appropriate location from this data. As I don't have restore jobs, I don't know if they would be in this same file, but it seems reasonable they would be there as well.

Are you speaking of the generated passwords for each web site? That would be quite a task. The XML in the .rdf file has all the information required to generate a password, but the master password is not in the .rdf file. I thought Keepass worked on the principle of a master password and then generated the passwords from the userid, web site (or whatever data it is told to use), along with other info such as password length, character strings to use, hashing algorithm, etc. I am not sure what you...
-
The passwordmaker .rdf file contains web sites, userid's, what to use to generate the password, length, hash algorithm, and a few other fields. The master password may be encrypted in there as well. I have tried PasswordMaker Pro, It imports the .rdf, but every entry becomes a profile. So I have 255 profiles. Since My wife and I have logins on the same web sites in many cases, looking for the one that doesn't come up on a web site is a nuisance. Additionally, I have found no way to have PasswordMaker...

I have been using passwordmaker as my on-line password manager. It is an add-on to Firefox. After upgrading to FF57, passwordmaker is no longer available. I have a file called passwordmaker.rdf that contains all my web sites, usernames, etc. The data in this .rdf file is XML. Can Keepass2 import this file? Are there any considerations to the XML used? Is there documentation that would help with this task? Thanks.
