I'm trying to get backups running from my CentOS server to a RHEL remote server. I keep getting this error when I try to back up:

"Remote filesize 0 for 'duplicity-full.20180925T231400Z.vol1.difftar.gz' does not match local size 496, retrying."

It appears  5 times and then duplicity gives up. When I check the files on the remote server they have a non-zero size. It looks like the rsync backend is having trouble checking and reporting the size. I have a minimum example that produces the message but syncs to a different directory on the source host.

Here's the info level log output:

"$ duplicity full --no-encryption pkgs rsync://localhost//home/CHSCC/bburnett/duplicity_backup_test/pkgs/
Local and Remote metadata are synchronized, no sync needed.
Last full backup date: none

I don't have this problem when I try the same rsync-to-localhost using Ubuntu on Windows 10 with duplicity 0.7.17. Has anyone seen this before?
