Amahi Sync ?

[jaylanzy]

Total Noob here...

For the life of me i can not get Amahi Sync to work. The Control Panel states "Add folders by enabling a share in your HDA to be available online." How is this done? In the Public share file i put the location to "http://nameofhda.amahi.me/public" & http://nameofhda.yourhda.com/public & several versions of both. What could i possibly be doing wrong?

The Public folder should already be present. It's important that the folder name is Public and not public. Once that is verified, you can then do as root user:

Code: Select all

systemctl start amahi-sync

Bigfoot,

In my efforts to make Sync work, i have deleted the Public folder. I added it back making sure the P is Capped. What should the location be pointed to? Is this a special file location. I have uninstalled Sync and started over thinking that would do it and a new Public file would populate the share but it did not happen. This should be as easy as dragging files to the Public folder for this to work, correct?

Your Noobian Friend,

If you have the folder created as /var/hda/files/Public, then ensure you create the share in the dashboard. It should point to that location and be called Public.

Once that is done, as root user do (or sudo):

Code: Select all

systemctl restart amahi-sync

Check amahi-sync log for details of what is happening:

Code: Select all

tail -f /var/log/amahi-sync.log

How is the share in the dashboard created? What am i missing here?

How about this. Submit a bug report describing your issue. Then our developer can take a look.

Best to go this route vs email.
