Problems using sync on two computers

I have copied config file from my workstation to my work laptop.

I have setup google cloud storage and crypt which uses the gcloud remote.

What I am trying to do is sync files from my workstation to laptop and vice versa but it seems rclone on laptop cannot see files made on workstation and vice versa.

user@workstation: rclone sync remote:dir_from_laptop local_dir/

The same happens when I try to get files from workstation to laptop.

From what I found trying to resolve this problem I gather that copy&paste config file should be enough to make this work but it's not in this case.

Any help will be appreciated.

hello and welcome to the forum,
when you posted, you should have been asked for information, is there a reason you did not suppy it?
that lack of information you supplied makes it hard for us to help you......

that log file, from which device is it from - workstation or laptop?

on whichever computer you used, run this, post the command and output
rclone config listremotes

The logfile is from workstation trying to get files pushed to the remote from laptop.

rclone listremotes as well as rclone config gives the same output on both machines.

we need more information to help you.

Do you mean rclone config and rclone listremotes? rclone config listremotes prints usage instructions for rclone config.

sorry, the correct command is rclone listremotes

also, please take note of this,
https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_sync/
Important : Since this can cause data loss, test first with the --dry-run flag to see exactly what would be copied and deleted.

laptop: rclone listremotes
backup:
backup-no-encrypt:

workstation: rclone listremotes
backup:
backup-no-encrypt:

I did run it with --dry-run first. I can see files I have pushed from workstation to remote when using rclone from workstation but not from laptop and vice versa.

you need to use the name of the remote in the command, not the text remote:

rclone lsd backup:
rclone lsd backup-no-encrypt:

Yes, I know that. The rclone sync remote:dir_from_laptop local_dir/ line was just an example. If I used remote: instead of the actual name of the remote I wouldn't be able to push any files, would I?

please, you need to post the command you are using, not some made up example.

can you run this commands and post the comamnds and outputs.

rclone lsd backup:
rclone lsd backup-no-encrypt:

workstation: 
-1 2020-07-10 00:20:47        -1 bucket
-1 2020-08-16 18:32:31        -1 project

laptop:
ERROR : : error listing: directory not found
Failed to lsd with 2 errors: last error was: directory not found

we need more information.

so please, post both the command and output, not just the output.

what is the exact sync command you are using?

laptop: rclone sync work backup:work
workstation: rclone sync backup:work work

you did a rclone lsd backup: and the output was

-1 2020-07-10 00:20:47        -1 bucket
-1 2020-08-16 18:32:31        -1 project

but your rclone sync command is
rclone sync backup:work work
there is no folder named backup:work
and thus the error source directory: directory not found

Yes yes, that's great. The output of rclone lsd backup: on laptop is:

-1 2020-08-16 18:25               -1 work

and rclone lsd backup: on the workstation?

workstation: 
-1 2020-07-10 00:20:47        -1 bucket
-1 2020-08-16 18:32:31        -1 project

are you sure the config is the same on both devices?
do a rclone config backup: on laptop and workstation.
make sure they are the same on both

can you please post the command and output.
just copy the command and output from the terminal and paste here.

That's the first thing I did, and I assure you it's the same:

[backup-no-crypt]
type = google cloud storage
location = europe-north1
storage_class = NEARLINE
token = [redacted]
project_number = [redacted]

[backup]
type = crypt
remote = backup-no-encrypt
filename_encryption = standard
directory_name_encryption = true
password = [redacted]
password2 = [redacted]

[backup]
remote = backup-no-encrypt

there is no remote with that name backup-no-encrypt?
but there is a backup-no-crypt

also, remotes that are not local need a :
so remote = backup-no-encrypt would point to a local folder.
