Copy single file

Help and Support
1

When I try to copy a single file, it creates a folder with name of file and puts file into it.

Command is
rclone copy amazon:/vzdump-qemu-114-2017_03_16-02_13_00.vma.lzo /var/lib/vz/dump/vzdump-qemu-114-2017_03_16-02_13_00.vma.lzo -v

Then it creates a folder vzdump-qemu-114-2017_03_16-02_13_00.vma.lzo and puts file vzdump-qemu-114-2017_03_16-02_13_00.vma.lzo into that folder. How can not avoid creating that unneeded folder?

This just started happening to me. Before a few days ago, it worked as expected, and if I did rclone copy temp.txt amazon:temp.txt it would just copy the file to the root folder. Now as stated, it creates a folder temp.txt then puts temp.txt in that folder. Running 1.36, it also does the same on a move.

rclone copy temp.txt amazon:temp.txt -v

rclone sync/copy/move copies directory to directory, with a special case if you point to a file for the source.

So the behaviour you see is expeced.

Use

rclone copy temp.txt amazon: -v

or

rclone copyto temp.txt amazon:temp.txt -v
