purge-vault not working

[ghost]

Not certain if this is an mt-aws-glacier issue or an Amazon Glacier issue.

I issued the purge-vault command, and got this error:

It looks to me, though, that the name "arn:aws:glacier:us-west-1:954508486505:vaults/Videos" is truly valid, as I look at my glacier account.

Not sure I understand. That's the vault name I'm using.

[ghost]

The whole command I'm using is:

mtglacier purge-vault --config=/root/glacier.cfg --to-vault=Videos --journal=/root/glacier-journal.log

[vsespb]

Ok. Then it should work :(

Maybe it's permission issue (check minimum permission example in the bottom
of mtglacier page)?
Or perhaps Amazon issue (I saw another person complainting to this, he used
different client)

Or maybe yo've just created that vault and amazon failed to delete archives
so soon (however i am not aware of such limitations)

I believe you can try contact Amazon (for example here
https://forums.aws.amazon.com - the above mtglacier error message contains
all required information)

Unfortunately I cannot help currently with testing again this mtglacier
function on my side as I am traveling till 25th. But when I last checked it
was working just fine.

Hello. So, were you able to resolve this?

Thanks. I saw that in my original Google search. I haven't resolved it
(but I haven't really tried much, either). I've taken to deleting files
one by one with another tool. When the vault is empty, I'll delete it and
try the whole thing again.

Hm. Interesting. If deletion one-by-one works, then the issue cannot be explained by Amazon problem. Thanks. I'll try to think how could this happen..

[vsespb]

I've tested purge-vault in latest version - it works fine for me.
I'll try to submit your stacktrace to amazon support, ok ?

[ghost]

I appreciate it, and thanks for the follow up! I'll also get the latest
from github and retry it.

latest - I meant 0.942beta - you already have it.

[vsespb]

Hi. I posted to Amazon forums
https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?threadID=123076
they think archive_id was from different vault
i.e. maybe you used one journal for several vaults?

[ghost]

I did, indeed, use the same journal for all my vaults. I didn't know that
it had to be different for each vault. If that's the case, it certainly
explains things. I can delete each item in the vault one by one, delete
the vault, and try the whole thing again, this time using a unique journal
for each vault. Thanks for the follow up!

Ok, cool.

For every command you should explicit specify vault and region (including sync and purge-vault), and you should use same vault/region with one journal. Journal does not contain region/vault names.

I will add to documentation explanation what Journal is, and will include explicit clarification that user should maintain region/vault/journal relation by himself (it's can be easy, if you specify region/vault/journal in one config file and don't change it, or if you include region+vault names in name of your journal file)

BTW You can use retrieve-inventory + download-inventory + purge-vault to clear all your vaults, without having to delete archives one-by-one. (make sure your last upload to vault was > 24h ago, otherwise retrieve-inventory won't retrieve latest version of archive listing).

Or maybe you won't have to purge vault after retrieve-inventory + download-inventory (i.e. yo'll create new journals split by vault)

Thanks for reporting!

Your follow up is nothing short of awesome. Thank you for this software and
amazing support!
