Your version is about 8-9 years old. Update.

woah, thank you! we'll update for sure.

how to update the version from 1.42 to 1.67, i already download the .rpm file, I am not sure if rclone selfupdate [flags] will work.

Options

      --beta             Install beta release
      --check            Check for latest release, do not download
  -h, --help             help for selfupdate
      --output string    Save the downloaded binary at a given path (default: replace running binary)
      --package string   Package format: zip|deb|rpm (default: zip)
      --stable           Install stable release (this is the default)
      --version string   Install the given rclone version (default: latest)

Self update was introduced many years after your version:) so won’t work.

Remove/uninstall your old version. Probably part of your OS packages.

Then install the latest one directly form rclone website:

When done provide all details of your issue. As so far it is not clear at all what does not work.

Thanks, am I doing it right?

1: delete existing rclone
rm -r /usr/sbin/rclone

2: install
yum install rclone-v1.67.0-linux-amd64.rpm

3: Copy binary file
sudo cp rclone /usr/sbin/
sudo chown root:root /usr/sbin/rclone
sudo chmod 755 /usr/sbin/rclone

hi,

run rclone version.

otherwise,

  1. uninstall using the same technique are you installed the old version, os package manager or however.
  2. install rclone the easy way using the official script - https://rclone.org/install/#script-installation
  3. run rclone version

otherwise,

  1. download+install pre-compiled binary - https://rclone.org/install/#linux-precompiled
  2. run rclone version

Thanks everyone @asdffdsa @kapitainsky @Animosity022 , I am able to install rclone latest version 1.67 , chunker is now working. I am working on a project where I will use chunker to transfer big dumps sample 4TB. And I am getting this from the logs, is this okay? note that I set the chunk-size to 100G .

It is some log fragment without any details. Not sure what do you want really.... nobody can see what you are doing.

yes, it is okay.

i am going to assume that remote provider is S3, based on:

  • parts: 10000 from --s3-max-upload-parts
  • default: 5Mi from --s3-chunk-size

now, might be a bit confusing, as there are two types of chunks.

  1. size of chunk as used by chunker.
  2. size of chunk as used by S3 provider when uploading the file.

with chunker, you specifced the chunk size as 100GiB. remember, each chunk is uploaded as a single file.
rclone wants to upload that 100GiB file, but using default values, the max file size is limited to 48GiB.

rclone noticed that problem, and instead of erroring out,
rclone increased the --s3-chunk-size from 5Mi, to 11Mi
check the docs - https://rclone.org/s3/#s3-chunk-size


now, need to post the output of:

  • rclone config redacted
  • top 20 lines of the debug output
