Re: [Question #690828]: Random broken pipe GPGError: GPG Failed

 

Question #690828 on Duplicity changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/690828

Description changed to:
Im running duplicity 0.8.13

About 30% of my incremental backups fail with the message:

GPGError: GPG Failed, see log below:
INFO: ===== Begin GnuPG log =====
INFO: gpg: using "XXXXXXXXXXXXXX" as default secret key for signing
INFO: gpg: signing failed: Broken pipe
INFO: gpg: [stdin]: sign+encrypt failed: Broken pipe
INFO: ===== End GnuPG log =====

They run for some hours and then abort with the message above.

This is really annoying, --num-retries has no effect it will abort on
first try always.

If i rerun the backup it succeeds.

I could run a while loop until duplicity succeeds (exit status 0) but i
dont know if this may break things.

Anyone knows why that gpg error happens and knows a solution for it ?
