[Bug 883742] Re: Deja Dup keeps asking for password

 

As a workaround I have removed the old backup folder and now have Deja
Dup pointing to a different folder. The first backup was a full backup
and everything went fine. With the previous settings I had changed the
option of 'saving 6 months' to just saving the last 3 months. It was
after that the error occurred and I could no longer make a backup.

The terminal command seems to have run a backup with no problems to the
new directory. I had to remove the old one to make space in my backup
location, and 6 months worth of backups. Sorry that I can not provide
any further details now.

Title:
  Deja Dup keeps asking for password

Status in “deja-dup” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 11.10

  The last 2 days whenever an automatic backup runs it asks me for my
  password, which I input. The GUI then says 'preparing backup', before
  asking for the password again. The password I am inputting is correct,
  so I am not sure why the backup is not running
