I first starting seeing this error during my scheduled backup. I then ran a Recreate Database operation and saw the error again.

Can you post your job exported “As commandline” (with any personal stuff like IPs, passphrases, auth tokens, email address, etc. removed)?
"C:\Program Files\Duplicati 2\Duplicati.CommandLine.exe" backup "googledrive://?authid=&googledrive-disable-teamdrive=true" "C:\code\\" --backup-name=xxxxx --dbpath="C:\Users\xxxxxxx\AppData\Local\Duplicati\xxxxx.sqlite" --encryption-module=aes --compression-module=zip --dblock-size=500MB --passphrase="" --retention-policy="1W:1D,4W:1W,12M:1M" --aes-set-threadlevel=2 --disable-module=console-password-input
At first glance nothing looks wrong to me.
Let’s make sure you installation hasn’t gotten corrupted - can you make another backup job with default values that just backs up a single folder? You can make the destination local if you’d like, but if you use Google Drive be sure to use a different path.
I created two new backups to test. One was local and the other was with google drive using the same auth credentials and a new folder. Both tests worked.
I don’t mind starting a new backup for my data as I have not lost anything. Sounds like something got corrupted as you mentioned. Would that be the best course of action?
ok, I spoke too soon @JonMikelV - I setup a new backup job with the same source folders as the old job and picked a new destination directory name for Google Drive and now get an error after a short while. Maybe it has something to do with the source path/file?

Both my Windows and Ubuntu machine were experiencing the initial error from my first post, but this new error is only on the Linux machine.

I just created a new backup and added one directory at a time to the source, everything is fine now. Not sure what the issue was.
