[Bug 889307] [NEW] Deja-dup fails on large backups to Ubuntu One

 

Public bug reported:

Using a fresh install of 11.10 with all updates, Deja-dup fails with
status code 302 when trying to backup large amounts of data to Ubuntu
One. I have 25Gb available, and am trying to backup 9Gb. I have a fast
internet connection, and have no trouble using Unison to sync my
computer with my server each night. In trying to use deja-dup with
Ubuntu One however instead, the above problem occurs.

I have successfully been able to sync this data several folders at a
time, rather than all my files at once. While this works, it is
unacceptably slow and time consuming. I recently reinstalled 11.10, due
to other issues, and of course now my backups aren't recognised anymore
as a source to backup to, though they might work in a restore (haven't
tried them).

Using Ubuntu One with Deja-dup is a great concept, and I have bought
more storage so I can have an off-site backup for all of my business
files. Presently however, I'll need to look for other solutions. Just
about to try Deja-dup locally with my Ubuntu One folder as a work-
around. I believe this should work, however again it's not ideal.

I love the concept of being able to backup directly to Ubuntu One,
without needing a duplicate copy of material I'm backing up on my disk
drive. I am very happy to help trouble-shoot this, could you let me know
what I need to do? Thanks for including such a great concept into
Ubuntu's past release. Cheers.
