Feb 15 14:34:13 Lenovo-ideapad-530S-15IKB systemd[1]: Started Duplicati web-server.
I used duplicati 2.0.5.112-1 for a few weeks with an account on operationtulip-dot-com (webdav) and it worked great. I installed it from the downloaded duplicati_2.0.5.112-1_all.deb file. I exported my settings to a file named duplicati-sync-1-duplicati-config.json.aes in order to make reinstallation easier.
All of a sudden, a few days ago I started getting this message: “The connection to the server is lost, attempting again in 0:05 0:04 0:03 0:02 0:01 now” and the countdown just loops forever.
Now I can’t get rid of this message and duplicati no longer works. I uninstalled duplicati and removed all version 2.0.5.112-1 stuff from my ~/.config/Duplicati directory. I restarted my machine and installed duplicati 2.0.5.1-1 from a deb file downloaded from the duplicati web site. I followed the duplicati online manual instructions for a linux installation, finally running
$ sudo systemctl enable duplicati.service
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl start duplicati.service
$ sudo systemctl status duplicati.service
before opening http://localhost:8200 in my browser, only to find that the problem persists.
I don’t know if this matters, but I also have a nextcloud instance under my operationtulip-dot-com account. All duplicati stuff goes into a separate directory, however. No problems with nextcloud; everything’s working great. Also, I’ve got a password set for duplicati.
I really don’t know what to do since I don’t know much about cloud storage. Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially if someone can tell me how to get around the server connection lost message appearing as soon as I point my browser to http://localhost:8200. Is there a way, perhaps using duplicati-cli, to return to the backup configuration I saved in duplicati-sync-1-duplicati-config.json.aes? Thanks.
