I have a few questions for clarification.
Who is your provider?
What type of architecture are you installing on?
Is this a greenfield install, or an upgrade?

3

It is a greenfield installation on the FRESH server.

  • Machine ID: 89dc2ab9ae0f417cb4ca45b7dbd7bbff
  • Boot ID: 455821d4b89f48d8b8e128c8cd42ae61
  • Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
  • Kernel: Linux 6.5.0-1025-oracle
  • Architecture: x86-64
  • Hardware Vendor: QEMU
  • Hardware Model: Standard PC _i440FX + PIIX, 1996

Okay. I asked because there are known issues with duplicity on Arm64 architecture where the solution is to use an Ubuntu snap instead of the package. Obviously not the issue here, but I see you’re running the Oracle Linux kernel, so something about your setup seems to be non-standard.

Maybe you could try running the command by hand (with sudo) to see if you can get better error output.

It is the same. And Oracle Cloud services has always Oracle Linux Karnel.
My all other applications always runs smoothly

I seem to remember others having problems with Oracle as a provider, but I’m having a hard time finding that post right now. Do you have an option to use a custom image with Oracle and then point it to the official Ubuntu
22.04 LTS ? Seem to remember this being the fix, but maybe it wasn’t with your provider.

Sorry! I use only Oracle Cloud

Install duplicity via snap. This hack was originally meant for arm64 as it is not supported via ppa but it should work on x86-64.
