[rdiff-backup-users] IOError: No such file or directory

[Chris Wilson]

Hi all,

I'm using rdiff-backup 1.0.4. Recently my backup server ran out of disk 
space and I left it that way for a few days before fixing it (with backups 
still being run against it, and failing). This seems to have royally 
broken my rdiff-backup repositories.

I managed to recover (I hope) from corrupted gzip metadata files, by 
uncompressing and recompressing them. However, this other problem 
persists:

Processing changed file tmp/home/chris/genesis/MC/Config

I've tried --check-destination-dir already and it completed without 
errors, but I still can't back up to it.

Any ideas?

Cheers, Chris.
