Hi all,

I have a cron script that first calls automysqlbackup for dumping the
database and dumps the package list. After that, it should copy this
plus other stuff to a remote location using duplicity. This script runs
fine when executed manually, but when run via cron it does dump the
database and package list, but it does not run duplicity. It also
doesn't log anything, at least not where I can find it.
Has anybody any idea of what I'm doing wrong? Below you find the script
I use. I know this is little to go on, but I really have no idea of what
else to provide. Thanks for any .

Sjoerd


#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/sbin/automysqlbackup.sh >> /var/log/automysqlbackup.log
/usr/local/sbin/dumppackagelist.sh >> /var/log/dumppackagelist.log

export PASSPHRASE=*******
duplicity --encrypt-key "55002BF6" --sign-key "DE030354" --include

ssh://backup@gerst//home/backup/rijst_backup >> /var/log/backup.log

I only can guess:

duplicity does not know, which gnupg keys to use.

try this:

export HOME=/home/<user>
