Hi there,
I have a repository on Hetzner StorageBox connected via WebDAV (https).
Issuing a maintenance run
" /opt/KopiaUI/resources/server/kopia --config-file=/home/wechsler/.config/kopia/repository.config maintenance run"
yields to an error message “error deleting unreferenced blobs”, see:

Running full maintenance…

How could I fix this error?
Thanks in advance for a hint.

You could try to connect to the Hetzner storage box using sftp with a ssh key (I use it this way) and see if the problem lies within webdav or not.

Thanks kees for this hint. I reconnected to my repository “mybackup” via SFTP instead of WebDAV and now the full maintenance runs flawlessly. So it seems that there is a problem within the WebDAV connection. SFTP seems to be free of this problem.
