This is very sudden. I had to reboot the Ubuntu machine, and after reboot I noticed the Duplicati “tray icon” missing. So I tried to restart Duplicati from command line, but the command “duplicati” tells me: “Server is not responding. Is it running?”
I have only ever used Duplicati in user mode, and I have not updated any Ubuntu packages recently. I am currently using Duplicati version 2.0.5.1. I already tried uninstalling duplicati and mono-devel and reinstalling the both, but that didn’t help.
Now, I don’t know how to trouble-shoot this. What can I do?
That error does not appear in Duplicati source, nor does Google report it as a common browser error.
makes me wonder if duplicati-client (which you’ve written about a few times, so maybe use) said that.
Can you get anything up using a full path, perhaps /usr/bin/duplicati? How do you usually start?
My bad. Most embarrasingly. I had trouble with a memory-hoggin app, and decided to disable its launch at reboot. Accidentally, I disabled Duplicati instead. I never know why.
Anyway, this morning the whole machine decided to quit working (almost) altogether. I have a new laptop that I have been preparing for use, but had hoped I could install on it the next LTS version of Ubuntu that will be published this week. Now I have to prepare a temporary setup. This will be the first time I have to do a restore in catastrophe situation, without access to he old system. I am hopeful though.
Presumably mono will finally be new enough. Ubuntu 19.10 shipped 5.18.0.240+dfsg-3.
The mono project offers 6.8.0 Stable (6.8.0.105) but all Duplicati 2.0.5.1 needs is >= v5.
