Log (only) files causing I/O errors

[s-leroux]

I am experimenting with rustic. I don't have any previous experience with it or with restic

While doing some backup tests, I've got a warning related to read error:

[00:00:05] backing up...                  ████████████████████████████████████████ 189.67 MiB            12.96 MiB/s                                                                          
[WARN] ignoring error: Error: Failed to read from reader in iterator (kind: related to input/output operations): caused by: Input/output error (os error 5)

Is there a way to identify the faulty file(s)?

Increasing the --log-level to debug helps, but it logs every file path as read, and that's a huge amount of data to scan.

Hi @s-leroux! Yes, the error message is not good here and should print out the file rustic tries to read... I'll see if I can add this soon!

Thanks @aawsome for your interest in this issue.

Should be fixed in rustic-rs/rustic_core#421

@s-leroux In fact, for most errors (like errors when opening a file), there is already a correct log including the full file path. In your situation it seems that the file can be opened but at some point the read operation failed. This is now also handled. Can you please retry with the latest nightly build?

Hi @aawsome, thanks for your hard work and dedication.

I do not currently have access to the server exhibiting this issue, but I have set a reminder to check it by the end of the week.

I've tested with rustic v0.9.5-43-gb6b31ca-nightly, and the I/O error message now properly displays the faulty file:

[WARN] ignoring error: Error: Error while backing up `/srv/nfs4/homes/sonia/.icedove/gssisbgv.default/ImapMail/outlook.office365.com`

Thank you for your time working on this issue!
