I thought I’d updated my Duplicati installation to 2.0.3.3_beta_2018-04-02 the other day. Over the last couple of days I noticed I was getting backup warnings saying the “retention policy” option was not supported.
I cleared my browser cache and checked by backup configuration and the Smart Retention option is no longer there.
I also see the following in the logs:
8 May 2018 22:35: Error in updater
System.Exception: Found unexpected file: /Users/david/Library/Application Support/Duplicati/updates/2.0.3.3/OSXTrayHost/rumps.pyc
at Duplicati.Library.AutoUpdater.UpdaterManager.VerifyUnpackedFolder (System.String folder, Duplicati.Library.AutoUpdater.UpdateInfo version) [0x00297] in <2e3a1be277654a188f84e503094300c3>:0
… and my version is now showing as back at 2.0.2.1_beta_2017-08-01.
Any idea why the update failed, and if there’s anything I should do before trying again?
