path: root/bugs/__34__No_such_file_or_directory__34___when_trying_to_backup.mdwn

Hi,

I'm using obnam 1.0 and try to backup files / directories. obnam is installed on Debian Squeeze with the package frovided on http://liw.fi. No ~/.obnam.conf file is used. The obnam repository and the files to backup are stored on a partition that is mounted from an encrypted partition (cryptsetup, device-mapper). When trying to backup with

cd /mnt/crypt/obnam

obnam backup /mnt/crypt/myfiles/test.data

obnam complains, that /mnt/crypt/myfiles/test.data is not available (No such file or directory). But the file is definitely available (less -f /mnt/crypt/myfiles/test.data shows data). When I comment out 

line 91: #raise OSError(err, os.strerror(err), self.cwd)

in the file obnamlib/vfs_local.py, the backup works fine. I don't understand what the purpose of this line is (I'm not a python programmer), but for me it produces errors. Maybe you can find a solution ;-)

Hi: there is at least one obvious bug here, which is that Obnam does not complain when you don't give an explicit backup repository (it uses the current working directory instead). I'll fix that. However, you seem to be working around that with the cd command. (Edit: --repository must now be set explicitly.)

The line you commented out is essential. It makes sure that the repository exists.

I'm not sure what the real error is that makes things not work for you. Could you e-mail me the log file, which has a lot extra information I could use for debugging. Thanks.

I am having this same problem.  I had to wipe my obnam repo from March--32 GB, uploaded slowly :(--since the repo format changed.  So before starting a whole, new, full backup, I decided to do a few little tests.  I first backed up a small directory to a local directory and tried a few operations.  Then I rsynced the repo to a remote server and ran fsck (obnam's, of course) on it.  It came out fine.  Listing clients and generations and keys and "ls" all worked fine.

So then I tried to make a new backup of the same, small, local directory.  It failed with:

    ERROR: sftp://me@host/~/obnam: No such file

This was quite strange, since all the other ops worked.  Finally I made a full log and here's what I see:

</pre>

Near the end of the log, it tries to stat('/path/to/my/user/obnam/obnam'), which doesn't exist.  Where did the extra "/obnam" come from?

Also, from my cursory look at the log, it seems like the backup succeeded before it failed, yet when I run "generations" I don't see any new ones.  Will I need to run "fsck" to remove orphaned nodes or files?

Thanks for obnam!  Looking forward to using it full-time.

AP, what was your command line? I wasn't able to reproduce this myself, so I need your help to do so. --liw

That happened to me yesterday when setting up a my new offsite repository.
When obnam is asked to create a new repository (notice the "opening repository (create=True)" in the log above) but the repository directory already exists, then it fails with the file not found error.
I rmdir'd my empty directory on the server (and I also replaced the "~" with a fully expanded path, not sure if that's related to the error) and it started working.

Ok, let me try this again.  Hopefully this will make it clear.  :)  --AP
