Mount ssh (sftp) - error "link not supported"

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

Getting errors when using rclone to mount google backend as an SSH/SFTP server

What is your rclone version (output from rclone version)

rclone v1.52.0

  • os/arch: linux/amd64
  • go version: go1.14.3

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

Ubuntu 18.04

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 mount -vv --vfs-cache-max-size 10G --vfs-cache-mode full google:Arq /home/kelly/mnt_repo_arq_google

The rclone config contents with secrets removed.


[google]
type = drive
client_id = [[something]].apps.googleusercontent.com
client_secret = [[something]]
scope = drive
token = [[something]]
team_drive = [[something]]

A log from the command with the -vv flag

lots of errors appear and when grepping for "err" I find a lot of things like this:

2020/06/22 13:49:16 DEBUG : 20FAAB01-7C2C-478A-AC9C-06D21F9E889E/objects/99/: >Link

(repeats a lot) 

You can't use hard links on a fuse mount in general as rclone does not support them.

So somewhere, you have something doing a link.
