Help and Support

Hello,

I am trying to copy over some folders on a shared mapped drive up to Google Drive. These files are housed on a server in our enviroment and we are working to get rid of the mapped local drives. This is my command:

rclone copy "\SERVERNAME\Finance-Copy\Finance & Accounting\General Ledger" General Ledger:GeneralLedger

I am getting this error
Command copy needs 2 arguments mininum
The system cannot find the path specified.

What is your rclone version (output from rclone version)

C:>rclone version
rclone v1.41

  • os/arch: windows/amd64
  • go version: go1.10

Windows 7 64bit

Using Google Drive

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

rclone copy "\\pprsvr1\Finance-Copy\Finance & Accounting\General Ledger" General Ledger:GeneralLedger

The rclone config contents with secrets removed.

[General Ledger]
type = drive
client_id =
client_secret =
scope = drive
root_folder_id = XXX
service_account_file =
token = {"access_token":"XXX","token_type":"Bearer","refresh_token":"XXX","expiry":"2020-06-25T12:10:32.3423966-05:00"}

A log from the command with the -vv flag

hello and welcome to the forum,

  • you need to update your rclone. your version is over two years old.

  • if your source or dest has a space character, then you need to quote it.
    https://rclone.org/docs/#windows
    "General Ledger:GeneralLedger"

  • run your command with flag -vv for debug output and post the output

given how old your rclone version was,
