Help and Support

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

when copying i get the following error ( -bash: syntax error near unexpected token `(' )

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

rclone v1.61.1

  • os/version: debian 11.6 (64 bit)
  • os/kernel: 5.10.0-19-amd64 (x86_64)
  • os/type: linux
  • os/arch: amd64
  • go/version: go1.19.4
  • go/linking: static
  • go/tags: none

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 copy gdrive:/ Folder ~/user01/

The rclone config contents with secrets removed.

[gdrive]
type = drive
scope = drive
token = 
team_drive = 0AHf4k2r6GsBWUk9PVA
root_folder_id = 
client_id = 
client_secret =

hello and welcome to the forum,

gdrive:/ Folder
did you intend to have a space character in the source, is that a typo?
maybe gdrive:/Folder

maybe run the command with -vv and post the output

3

hello that is a typo also when i type gdrive:/Folder i get the same error but when i type copy gdrive:/ ~/user01/ all files are copied i only want to copy one folder with the files

4

rclone copy gdrive:folder ~/user01 --dry-run -vv
must change folder to the name of your folder

5

the same error occurs again -bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('

6

please post the full output of the command i shared.

rclone copy gdrive:Drone(Videos) ~/user01/ --dry-run

rclone copy 'gdrive:Drone(Videos)' ~/user01/ --dry-run
