Restore after new OS installation #8311

Open iomari opened 1 month ago

iomari commented 1 month ago

Greetings, I've been using borg/borgmatic for quite some time now with no issues what so sever. I have about 7 previous backups. Last week I did a fresh install of Kubuntu 24.04 which went smoothly then I connected my borg backup drive so I could restore some folders. My previous home folder was already in place so my borg config files were in tact. I installed borgbackup and borgmatic. I mistakenly forgot to take note of the version of borg I was sing but I believe it was 2b8. So I ran the mount command:

sudo borg --repo /mnt/5t/backups/borg/complete mount /mnt/borg
[sudo] password for iomari:

and I'm getting the error: Runtime Error: borg mount not available: no FUSE support, BORG_FUSE_IMPL=pyfuse3,llfuse.

I have both pyfuse3 and llfuse installed so I don't know what the problem is.

Check the borg install docs, it lists the ubuntu system packages required for borg, including the fuse/fuse3 packages.

In case you used a virtual env to install borg 2.0.0b8 via pip, you likely need to recreate the venv after upgrading the OS (and the OS python3). It's also in the docs...
