Impossible to add gdrive

PerkelSimon · February 22, 2023, 1:33pm

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I've installed rclone everything is ok but at then end I dont have gdrive as device in my manager files.

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.

$ rclone version
rclone v1.62.0-beta.6737.ce8b1cd86
- os/version: arch "rolling" (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 6.1.12-arch1-1 (x86_64)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.20.1
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: none

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

I'm using ggogle drive

rclone ls gdrivemedia: -vv
<7>DEBUG : rclone: Version "v1.62.0-beta.6737.ce8b1cd86" starting with parameters ["rclone" "ls" "gdrivemedia:" "-vv"]
<7>DEBUG : rclone: systemd logging support activated
<7>DEBUG : Creating backend with remote "gdrivemedia:"
<7>DEBUG : Using config file from "/home/james/.config/rclone/rclone.conf"
Failed to create file system for "gdrivemedia:": didn't find section in config file

$ rclone mount mygdrive: ~/gdrive/

and nothing happens, the terminal freezes

hello and welcome to the forum,

best to use stable rclone, not beta.

you posted two remote names, which one is correct?
gdrivemedia or mygdrive

to get a name of the remotes you created, rclone listremotes

that is correct. need to keep the command running.
if you kill the rclone mount command, then cannot access the files.

I tried the stable too.

you posted two remote names, which one is correct?

weird, I just created mygdrive

$ rclone listremotes
mygdrive:

asdffdsa · February 22, 2023, 2:12pm

does this command work, rclone lsd mygdrive: -vv

and to the monut command, try adding --allow-other -vv

make sure no other rclone mount command are running in the background.

PerkelSimon · February 22, 2023, 2:23pm

after a reboot;

rclone mount --allow-other -vv mygdrive: ~/gdrive/

asdffdsa · February 22, 2023, 2:27pm

that is a linux issue, not a rclone issue
need to add user_allow_other to /etc/fuse.conf

PerkelSimon · February 22, 2023, 2:31pm

ok thanks

$ sudo nano /etc/fuse.conf

and what about that ;

Google drive root '': 'root_folder_id = XXXXXXXXXXX' - save this in the config to speed up startup

asdffdsa · February 22, 2023, 2:33pm

does not really matter one way or another. i never do that.
tho, if you want to add that text, go ahead.

PerkelSimon · February 22, 2023, 2:36pm

but my real problem is when I used rclone 2 years ago, I saw gdrive as a drive /device where my D is

asdffdsa · February 22, 2023, 2:48pm

no idea what the screenshot is about?

and as i mentioned, would use stable rclone, not beta.
