Hi im sort of a noob when it comes to linux but was able to get restic installed and start a backup to my digital oceanspace. problem is the backup runs for a while and always errors out, ive been trying for some weeks now but always get the same error, could this really just be a time-out ? if so restic is not handling it. my internet is pretty stable , cant speak for the digitalocean space tho. errors is below.
this forum is hyper linking everything so i cant post here…dumb i uploaded a screenshot
While I haven’t tested DO Spaces personally, there were a couple of reports that restic does not work so well with them, e.g. https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1261#issuecomment-345581158 There seems to be some kind of rate-limiting in place, and when restic retries a request, the server responds that the file on the server already exists. This is different from the behavior of other S3 implementations (like Minio for example).
I don’t have access to DO, so I cannot test this backend, sorry.
I’ve rerformatted your forum post a bit, in the future when you want to paste raw data, do that between two lines which contain three backticks (`) each, then the forum will just render it in verbatim.
