Hello!
What is the problem you are having with rclone?
I am trying to mount an rclone mount on /etc/fstab and it is not working.
But if I run the command manually, it mounts correctly.
Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.
$ rclone version
rclone v1.67.0
- os/version: ubuntu 22.04 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 5.15.0-117-generic (x86_64)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.22.4
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: none
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
It is not cloud.
My iMac is running Filezilla Server.
So it is a FTP Share.
Using the same user and password, I have full read access to the shares/data/folders via FTP Client.
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp
)
Running this command in the CLI works as expected, and as soon as I press CTRL+C, it unmounts (as expected behaviour)
rclone mount iMac19_Volumes:/ /mnt/iMac19_Volumes
Off course the previous one only works while running, I want something to mount in the background on boot.
That is why I want to put it in the /etc/fstab according to documentation.
But this one in /etc/fstab doesn't work
iMac19_Volumes:/iMac19_Volumes/ /mnt/iMac19_Volumes rclone rw,noauto,nofail,_netdev,x-systemd.automount,args2env,vfs_cache_mode=writes,config=/etc/rclone.conf,cache_dir=/var/cache/rclone 0 0
I went further googling and found other comments and found other options in the documentation
In this page rclone mount in the "Now you can run classic mounts like this:"
Using this command:
mount iMac19_Volumes:/iMac19_Volumes/ /mnt/iMac19_Volumes -t rclone -o vfs_cache_mode=writes
Also WORKS
So it is something related either to fstab or to the command I inserted.
I also tried this version of the command in /etc/fstab and also doesn't work (added allow_other option)
iMac19_Volumes:/iMac19_Volumes/ /mnt/iMac19_Volumes rclone rw,allow_other,noauto,nofail,_netdev,x-systemd.automount,args2env,vfs_cache_mode=writes,config=/etc/rclone.conf,cache_dir=/var/cache/rclone 0 0
Please run 'rclone config redacted' and share the full output. If you get command not found, please make sure to update rclone.
$ rclone config redacted
[iMac19_Volumes]
type = ftp
host = XXX
user = XXX
port = 21
pass = XXX
explicit_tls = true
no_check_certificate = true
### Double check the config for sensitive info before posting publicly
This part shoudln't be the problem because as I said before, I can access my data both in FTP client and when mounting manually using this config unchanged.
A log from the command that you were trying to run with the -vv
flag

Any help on how to automount this on boot?
Thank you.
