Post Gzip error on error file 
Dear all:

I was testing rdiff-backup and the source machine was turned off. Now,
when I try to backup to the same destination, I get this message:

# rdiff-backup -v3 --exclude /home/xxxx/ /home
gotvertigobackup < at > xxxxxxxxxxx::/home/xxxbackup/backup

Previous backup seems to have failed, regressing destination now.

unexpected end of file

But now, this file is gone (Im sure I haven't deleted it).

How can I continue backing up my data?

I'm assuming you have enough free space on the remote end? Unexpected
ends of files may be caused by lack of space.

Yes I have around 60gb free. I think the problem was that the origin
machine was rebooted while doing the backup.

That'll certainly do it!

In your rdiff-backup-data directory, move *2004-10-24T21:50:24-07:00*
to another location as backup and try again.

In theory this shouldn't happen, but see
