I configured Deja-dup to make a daily backup of my whole data drive. Now I get an error message each time, telling me, that not all files could be backuped. But i cannot find any Deja-dup logs in /var/log nor in the syslog. Where does it display the missing files?

It seems that it doesn't really save them anywhere, but if you run it with the environment variable DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 you can get all the information that way.

In Deja-Dup on Ubuntu 16.04 (default Backup app installation), there are limited log files in ~/.cache/deja-dup/. It looks like only fairly basic information is stored by default.

In Deja Dup on Ubuntu 22.04 under "About Backups" menu there's the "Troubleshooting option". There you can see a brief debugging information log.
