Would this have something to do with it? The other host, that also has these errors, is a linux based mail server. They are just .eml files basically, interacting with an Outlook interface. $ rdiff-backup host_backup::/path/to/source /path/to/mirror I have a .ssh config file that identifies host_backup to login to the remote source. These jobs are run from crontab.
Well, I have just tested that configuration and it worked for me, so ..
1) What does:
rdiff-backup --test-server host_backup::/path/to/source
report?
2) If you open /path/to/mirror/rdiff-backup-data/mirror_metadata.*.snapshot.gz
where * is the latest mirror, please look for the "File ACCPACPL.PIF" line, and then send the block of text that follows (that is, the metadata entry for that file, which is one of the files which is not having its SHA1 written). This information will be very helpful.
3) How are you using the --verify command? (You are running on the backup destination, right?)
