I also have this problem using rdiff-backup for VM.
I usualy do a snapshot of VM, then make a backup (VM is running),
so I'd prefer to have an option to save "temp file" as is, not
testing if source is changed wile backup is running (I'll restore VM from snapshot).

I would be happy if --force option may do it.

Sounds like the files are being written to/updated during the backup?

Can you rotate them before backup or copy them to a static file?

rdiff-backup isn't gong to be happy with them having changed since it started backing them up.

I have my domain controller which has a 2GB ldap.log file. Whenever rdiff-backup hits this file it always errors out with the message below. Though it isnt an exception and causes rdiff-backup to die completely, its the main file I am concerned with rdiff-backing up but for some reason reason, it refuses to. I also watch the increment file being transferred and it doesnt error out until its done transferring the 2GB

This is also prevalent on my samba log files
