Re: [Duplicity-talk] Re: First restore failing

[Darik Horn]

Thorsten Kampe reports that he is a FastMail.fm customer.

First, FastMail runs nginx, which has a default configuration that is 
known to break WebDAV.  Before kludging duplicity, check whether another 
program like `cadaver` can use the FastMail WebDAV service to access a 
file with the ':' entity in its name.

Second, FastMail requires a long username like "address@hidden" 
for WebDAV authentication.  Peter Schuller comments that unquote() 
should be adequate here, but recall that duplicity is bundled with a 
customized urlparse_2_5.py that overrides '@' entity handling.
