Hey all!

First time installer

Enviroment: Mint OS Running on VMware (Windows Host)

Installed Duplicati via portainer using docker compose script here

Have you tried adding privileged: true to your Docker compose?

version: “2.1”
services:
duplicati:
image: lscr.io/linuxserver/duplicati:latest
container_name: duplicati

environment:
  - PUID=0
  - PGID=0
  - TZ=Europe/London
  - CLI_ARGS= #optional
volumes:
  - ./config:/config
  - ./backups:/backups
  - /:/source
ports:
  - 8200:8200
restart: unless-stopped
privileged: true

Would this work?

No syntax errors picked up with this
Deployed a new stack/container and no change to file tree

I use the official image: ```
image: duplicati/duplicati

I use Linux Mint (but not Docker), but don’t quite follow the issue.
How are they not seen when the link is an image showing them?

Hey, that list is missing docker folders an more shown on the other link

The /var/lib listing with docker in red square? The list I cited is /var and direct subfolders including lib, which you can expand if you want a comparable view of /var/lib in Duplicati.
Click on the triangle to expand, and then compare. If they’re still different, then that’s a puzzle.
Right now, these images are two different folders.

Thank you for checking, hopefully I’m not losing the plot.

I’ve added some more screenshots and think I’m looking at the same folder on each platform.

One of your early images was on Backup destination screen, which looked odd.

I might be missing the big picture. Is Duplicati on Mint as a Docker to backup Mint?

If so, don’t browse to Docker /var/lib – browse to where the host /var/lib is available.

FWIW I notice that Duplicati has var/lib/binfmts, but your other (the host?) does not.

Thanks for taking a look.

I’ve attempted to install Duplicati to Mint bypassing the docker setup to see if that lets me see the full file tree but I’ve had issues installing that too.

what version? After that, one might need to map to Ubuntu. packages.ubuntu.com shows
libappindicator0.1-cil was removed after 23.10
libappindicator3-0.1-cil was removed after 22.04
libayatana-appindicator1 is not in any version
libappindicator3-1 is available in many versions, but Duplicati isn’t requesting in your image
I don’t know what’s compatible with what. Probably need some developer input about that…

Messiness of old application indicators (used to show TrayIcon) is in the process of removal.
Duplicati 2.0.9.x Canary releases (test releases with some big changes) use a different way.
They seem to work well if one can get in to set password. Easiest way might be by tray icon. Database gets a version upgrade, but you might not have any old backups directly on Mint…
