Duplicity Linux Backup to Azure Error

Update:

Realised that the azurebackend.py file was missing from /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/backends

Manually added this in and now the error is as follows:

or

pip install azure-storage

Hi David - thanks for your response!

Unfortunately I’ve tried the above already to no avail. pip install azure-storage cannot find the package but I have installed it manually using the same URL but I still get the same error.

I read that version 0.2 is required and have downgraded to this also but still have the same error!

I don't have your environment so I can't test unfortunately
