Deja Dup suddenly cannot back up files (access problem)
Running from an admin account, Deja Dup cannot back up files from other users. It also failed to back up one directory (/home/
"Could not back up the following files. Please make sure you are able to open them."
As a matter of fact, I can only view the directories with sudo, so it appears to be an access problem. There is a bug report ( https:/
/home/myuser/
/home/myuser/.dbus and
/home/myuser/.gvfs,
but mine is a much broader problem. Changing ownership is clearly not the way to back up all users' files. Shouldn't deja dup handle other users' files without problem--especially since I'm running from admin? Is there a workaround? Is there a bug report?
Not backing up ~./.config/
Running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, fully patched.
