Laurent,
Firstly - thanks for posting, I see you are using a version of my
regression script and I have been able to update it slightly
based on your posting. However this is nothing to do with your main
problem, regarding which the rdiff-backup FAQ here
says:
'If rdiff-backup fails with the message "AssertionError: Bad
index order," it could be because the files in a directory
have changed while
rdiff-backup is running. Possible ways of dealing with this
situation include implementing filesystem snapshots using the volume
manager, excluding the offending directory, or suspending the
process that is changing the directory. After the text "Bad index
order", the error message will indicate which files have caused the
problem.'
This doesn't help with the regression issue though. The 'file'
causing the problem at line 275 of rorpiter.py seems to be
/usr/share/terminfo/P/P9-W which is some sort of system thingy.
If no one else has a better idea I would be tempted to comment out
lines 274 and 275 of rorpiter.py and retry the regression - this
would attempt to ignore the error, but of course it might not work.

out with the error below. I have a Red Hat 4.5 server which has
been doing
a backup every day for a while now and all of a sudden this
happens.
Something must have gone wrong with a
backup
and the following error occurs every time it tries to regress.
I have tried using the
rdiff-backup-regress
script I got from this list a few months ago, here's the output
from that:

And now for the really interesting
bit: this
isn't the first such error I've seen.
About a year ago, I had the EXACT same
error
on the backup of a server. And when I mean EXACT, it was
absolutely the
same, complaining about the exact same files (the ELsmp/ELxenU
ipt_DSCP.ko
and the terminfos). I never found a solution and ended up nuking
the backup
and starting from scratch.
Then, starting early this month, the
very
SAME error occurred on a backup. Again, no solution so I
restarted from
scratch.
And then now, two days after I did
that,
this backup gives me the very same error.
So, by now, I have had 3 different
occurrences
of this error bite me and I would really like to find a solution
that does
not involve starting from scratch. Note that the last two errors
came from
two different source servers, both running RH 4.5. I don't
remember that
much about the incident one year ago, but I do believe it was
also a RH
4.5.
Help?
