I configured Deja-dup to make a daily backup of my whole data drive. Now I get an error message each time, telling me, that not all files could be backuped. But i cannot find any Deja-dup logs in /var/log nor in the syslog. Where does it display the missing files?

Did you check /tmp/deja-dup.log? – devav2 Sep 19 '12 at 8:05
I could not find a file there – Raffael Sep 19 '12 at 10:10

It seems that it doesn't really save them anywhere, but if you run it with the environment variable DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 you can get all the information that way.

Now that is some verbose output. The log file has >500MB for one run of deja dup. My solution is now to run the command manually again and check the gui output. – Raffael Sep 24 '12 at 9:36
