I don't use the <code>--s3-use-new-style</code> flag and I am only running version 0.9d of python-boto ... I would post the question to the duplicity mailing list ... Good luck!

Unfortunately, I could not find a newer version via yum. Do you think I need to find a more later RPM and install it? (Boto has 1.9b) Thanks Damon, I am in Europe (UK) and I have python-boto 1.0a (1.el5 release) version. Unfortunately, I could not find a newer version via yum.

Either you need to upgrade your boto library or duplicity has failed to correctly detect the appropriate support. I have the last duplicity a boto library available for CentOS via yum. Any idea what the problem might be please? I tried to create a small script myself and it did work so now I am trying to figure out what I did wrong with this script... Regards Alex Hi,

Tried to use your script and have got the following error:

./dt-s3-backup.sh –full

Use of new-style (subdomain) S3 bucket addressing wasrequested, but does not seem to be supported by the boto library. Either you need to upgrade your boto library or duplicity has failed to correctly detect the appropriate support.

I have the last duplicity a boto library available for CentOS via yum. Any idea what the problem might be please?

I tried to create a small script myself and it did work so now I am trying to figure out what I did wrong with this script…

Alex

If you are running a WHM/CPanel setup and want to use duplicity to backup your server, then you'll want to exclude /home/virtfs from your backups.

(at least, as far as I know). Duplicity’s most basic command line structure is:

  • duplicity src dest

In our case, ROOT is our src … you do not have to have an include or an exclude list (those are optional) but you do need a src and a dest … (at least, as far as I know).
