Mounting OneDrive - no write access? (1.37)

Suspected Bug
1

Hey Guys,

so I was testing rclone with the mount option in Windows and CentOS but am stuck a bit.

While the mount itself is ok, I am unable to write any files to it. Both linux and Windows state:

Windows:

2017/07/27 13:37:40 ERROR : /xxxx.xxx.de/ndsvc.log: Can’t truncate files
2017/07/27 13:37:41 ERROR : xxx.xxx.de/ndsvc.log: WriteFileHandle.Write error: io: read/write on closed pipe
2017/07/27 13:37:41 ERROR : IO error: io: read/write on closed pipe

Linux:

2017/07/27 13:26:42 ERROR : mysql.daily.dump.0.gz: WriteFileHandle.Write error: io: read/write on closed pipe

Is this a known limitation with OneDrive or a bug?

mounting is done via

rclone mount OneDrive:_fancy_folder /var/_OneDrive

Thanks!

Seems to be the result when wriring to a onedrive mount.

Not all remotes support write with mount unfortunately. I plan to fix this for 1.38 by adding a write buffer so the files get written to disk first before being sent to the mount which is the only way those remotes can be made to work.

Superb, thanks for the response!

Do you have any timeframe for that feature?

A month or so, cross fingers!
