hey Tomek,

duplicity moved development over to
https://gitlab.com/duplicity/duplicity/-/issues . consider opening a
ticket there.

looks like an user error. two suggestions.

1.
choose a backend _and_ try to use it on command line first! like e.g. lftp, make sure it is instlled and can connect to the ftp-server of your choosing.

2.
if the above works. run duplicity. if there is an error repeat but set log verbosity to max. '-v9' and you should see what the binary/library  the backend is using printed out.

also
your target url looks wrong. there are no '[]' allowed around the port/password given. these chars in the man page merely signal that an entry is optional, showing the default value. a proper ftp url for duplicity could look like this

ftp://user:pass@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:21/folder/

you didn't give no folder as well.
