Dedupe Terminating on insufficientFilePermisson error

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

Rclone dedupe termintates completely if it encounters an insufficientFilePermisson error,
shouldn't it just skip the files it cannot edit/delete and continue operation on the rest of the files?

What is your rclone version (output from rclone version)

rclone v1.48.0-211-g82c6c77e-beta
- os/arch: linux/amd64
- go version: go1.12.9

Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)

Centos 7, 64 bit

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

Google Drive

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

rclone dedupe first gdrive: -vv

A log from the command with the -vv flag (eg output from rclone -vv copy /tmp remote:tmp)

Failed to dedupe: merge duplicate dirs: MergeDirs move failed to rmdir "testdir": googleapi: Error 403: The user does not have sufficient permissions for this file., insufficientFilePermissions

Thanks for the help!

IO Error: googleapi: Error 403: The user does not have sufficient permissions for this file., insufficientFilePermissions

I am getting a similar error

That only looks like a clip of the log, do you have the full log?

The rest of the log is just successful moves and deletes.....
Rclone terminates right after this error

Can you share the log or no?

Here you go,

Are you able to delete the "DUMMY_FOLDER" via a normal delete command?

If no, can you run the command with --dump headers so we can see the response?

DUMMY_URL:~/rclone$ rclone rmdir "of2:DUMMY_FOLDER" -vv --dump headers --retries 1

rclone dedupe will terminate if any of the commands it does fail... This isn't ideal!

It could be made to continue some of the errors quite easily I think.

Can you please make a new issue on github about this?
