Hi, I'm new to Amahi Sync, and can't get it working.
The advice is: "Please note that for the time being you have to create a share called Public (case sensitive) in the default location for Amahi Sync to kick in."
So I tried that but I already have a share called Public with lots of files in. When I tried to create a new share I saw: "Public has already been taken".
I tried restarting the Amahi Sync service, but the "Browse your files" link in Control Panel still takes me to a page that says:
"This folder is currently empty.
Add folders by enabling a share in your HDA to be available online."
I don't see anywhere that I can enable a share to be available online.
Thanks,
Steve

Re: Amahi Sync problem
Hi,
Well, I read that twice but still not sure what I should do
I can see my Public share has the path /var/hda/files/public and I guess I could rename it to /var/hda/files/Public but the comment in the Bug report says that won't help.
How about this - remove Amahi Sync, move files from Public to somewhere else, delete Public share, reinstall Amahi Sync, check that the path is /var/hda/files/Public, move files back.
Would that work?
Kind regards

Re: Amahi Sync problem
Sorry, I may have referenced the wrong bug report.
What you basically need to do is change /var/hda/files/public to /var/hda/files/Public.
Then change it in the dashboard for the Public share to match.
Restart the samba and Amahi Sync services. Restarting the HDA might be easier.
That should fix the problem. Check /var/log/amahi-sync.log for errors.

Re: Amahi Sync problem
Hi,
Thanks for your help.
Can I just use a terminal to rename the folder while there are files in it?
Do I need to do anything else besides rename it, change it in the dashboard, and restart the HDA?
Kind regards

Re: Amahi Sync problem
Yes terminal is the best way. No need to move files.
The steps I outlined previously should fix it.

Re: Amahi Sync problem
Hi,
I renamed the folder from public to Public. I updated the Shares page on the HDA, and rebooted the HDA. Greyhole hasn't been affected, it deals with files in the newly named folder just as before. But there's nothing in the cloud. There is a file called amahi-sync.log where you said it would be, but it's empty.

Re: Amahi Sync problem
Try the following in terminal:
Check the log for content.
Code: Select all
systemctl restart amahi-sync

Re: Amahi Sync problem
Hi,
Sorry, I made a mistake when I said the log file was empty. I wasn't looking at it properly.
This is being logged every 30 minutes:
200219-112931-901425: waking up and doing a full sync
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(226) [sender=3.1.2]
200219-112933-448276: sync ended with exit status: 12
200219-112936-451256: sync errors found - sleeping to check later
So I used the systemctl command as you advised, and this was added to the log:
Exiting Amahi Sync v0.30 normally with code(15)
Exiting Amahi Sync v0.30 with error code(0)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(226) [sender=3.1.2]
Starting Amahi Sync v0.30
200219-114135-214515: sync ended with exit status: 12
200219-114137-215994: sync errors found - sleeping to check later
