What is the problem you are having with rclone?
Good morning everyone, I just registered.
I recently purchased a mini PC to use it as an Ubuntu + NextCloud server for my personal cloud.
I also connected an external HDD to the mini PC in which I locally back up the Ubuntu partition and NextCloud data with rsync.
I would like to add an additional backup of NextCloud data on IDrive e2 with rclone.
I created the bucket on IDrive e2 and a folder inside it.
I followed the wizard with the "rclone config" command and currently the rclone.conf file is this:
[Idrivee2]
type = s3
provider = IDrive
access_key_id = XXX
secret_access_key = XXX
acl = private
endpoint = l0m4.fra2.idrivee2-55.com
server_side_encryption = aws:kms
bucket_acl = private
If I try to run the command "rclone sync /mnt/nextcloud idrive:dandycloud/nextcloud-e2" the system gives me this error:
2024/11/27 09:48:42 CRITICAL: Failed to create file system for "idrive:dandycloud/nextcloud-e2": didn't find section in config file
The rclone.conf file is saved in /home/dandy/.config/rclone
The rclone version is this:
rclone v1.68.2
- os/version: ubuntu 24.04 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 6.8.0-49-generic (x86_64)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.23.3
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: none
I tried to search in this forum but I couldn't find a solution and I don't understand where I'm going wrong.
I also specify that I am a beginner with the linux world, I use a distro on a dell latitude every now and then in my free time, after macos and windows.
Thanks to those who will help me.
Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.
