      I've put a log of the backup here:

      Anyone have any ideas as to what's going wrong here?

Try copying the base data to dest with rsync first and then run rdiff-backup 
against
it with --force.
That worked! The rdiff-backup finished successfully after an initial rsync of the data. Why did I need to run rsync first to make it work?
