Found 1 commands but expected 2 (trying simple backup test)

Guessing these are “Failed to process path”, meaning they’re source files. Are characters in names looking relevant to failure? What do the working files and empty directories have in their filenames?

What does “2 backups” mean? Is this two runs from one source area or from different source areas? Main reason I wonder if they’re different is prior “for both of 2 backups, find shows”. Why re-run find?

I’m not that familiar with it, but I’d thought dbconfig.json would assign a new DB for a new destination.
You can view your ~/.config/Duplicati/dbconfig.json to see if the way it looks leads you the same way.
