acd_cli cache not updated after a failed upload

[jorti]

I've noticed that after a failed upload, subsequent retries fail because of a name collision. If I sync again, I can find the file and see that it has been created, then I trash it and can upload it again.

So it looks like an entry in the local cache should be added after a failed upload, or maybe even auto-trash the file, because the file has been created in ACD, but the content is truncated.

Look at this duplicity bug report, where I paste the exact errors.

I use duplicity which calls acd_cli to upload the files. In this example, the command that failed was:

acd_cli upload --force --overwrite '/tmp/duplicity-9DdCo1-tempdir/duplicity-inc.20161101T221724Z.to.20161108T061533Z.vol466.difftar.gpg' '/Backups/xenon/duplicity/'

In the first attempt, it failed with this error:

 BackendException: Error running 'acd_cli upload --force --overwrite '/tmp/duplicity-9DdCo1-tempdir/duplicity-inc.20161101T221724Z.to.20161108T061533Z.vol466.difftar.gpg' '/Backups/xenon/duplicity/'': returned 8, with output:

1 file(s) failed.

The next retries were all failing with a name collision error:

Exactly the same situation here, any thoughts on that?

I think this is a duplicate of #349.
