Backup fails the last few days

Not sure when it started failing. It is a few days.
Haven’t touched it.
The destination is accessible fine (test succeeds).
The error is this:
Backup: backup-data
Backup started at 2021-11-16 01:00:01
Pre backup scripts status: SUCCESS
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/usr/bin/duplicity”, line 1637, in
if “Forced assertion for testing” in util.uexc(e):

return ufn(m)

return filename.decode(globals.fsencoding, ‘replace’)
AttributeError: ‘tuple’ object has no attribute ‘decode’
Duplicity backup failed
Action ‘backup-data-duplicity backup-data’: FAIL
Backup status: FAIL

Settings are to run once per day, to NFS (check succeeds as I said), Duplicity, incemental, full every Monday.

Any ideas?

I’ve found something here:

It could be an interrupted backup, you should delete the partial files from last interrupted backup and try to backup again.

I deleted all old backups and let it run last night.
I didn’t get an email about a fail and the backup folder now has new files.
Let see if this keeps working.

Thanks.
