Need help setting up a B2 repository that already exists

[r3nor]

I have the following config.json (sensible info redacted);

{
  "modno": 1,
  "instance": "myinstancename",
  "auth": {
    "disabled": true
  },
  "repos": [
    {
      "id": "myrepo",
      "uri": "b2:my-unique-bucket-name",
      "password": "REDACTED",
      "env": [
        "B2_ACCOUNT_ID=003REDACTED005",
        "B2_ACCOUNT_KEY=K00REDACTED/cI"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

however, any operation ends with:

ERROR   task failed     
{
  "task": "index snapshots for repo \"myrepo\"",
  "error": "get snapshots for repo \"myrepo\": get snapshots for repo myrepo: command \"/bin/restic-0.16.4 snapshots --json -o sftp.args=-oBatchMode=yes\" failed: exit status 1",
  "duration": "1m0.009617288s"
}

and it works if I use restic cli or autorestic:

❯ autorestic -c ./autorestic.yml check
Using config:    /home/autorestic/autorestic.yml
Using env:       /home/autorestic/.autorestic.env
Using lock:      .autorestic.lock.yml
Everything is fine.

You may want to try running some other operation e.g. a check in the backrest UI (from the repo view), index snapshots doesn’t capture all logs in the error message.

A check operation should include details about the problem restic is running into beyond the exit status.
