Hi everyone, I’ struggeling with setting up a new Duplicati-Backup on my Google Drive. I have setup the job, authorized duplicati to Google Drive ( Message: Connection worked! ).
When I start the Backup manual, Duplicati uploads exactly one file and after that it fails with “403 - unauthorized”. I have read a lot of older conversations but nothing seems to work - any idea what’s going on here?
Log from Job:
Commandline log:
Any Idea?
Hi @thebang2, welcome to the forum 
That button will list the files, so it essentially just tests if the credentials are working.
From the direct code “403” it seems to suggest that you do not have permissions on that drive folder. Do you see any files being created? (You write it uploads exactly one, but not sure if that one sticks).
Other causes where I have heard of quirks with Google Drive are:
- Account limits reached
- Quota limits reached (daily)
- Google thinks the file is malware
The two first should only be relevant if this is an administrated account and the admin has reduced capacities beyond the default.
The last one is a bit harder to figure out, and sadly the error message recorded does not explain what exactly is happening.
Looking at the commandline output, it seems that it uploads all files, but fails to upload the final dlist
file?
