trying to uses rclone copy or copyto function in google colab (not working)

': error reading source root directory: found file when looking for folder

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

welcome to the forum,

for all commands, please redact as little as possible. what is the real name of the source??

is Path a folder or a file?
run rclone ls Tappetino: -vv
then post full output

run rclone copy "remote:Path/file.mp4" "/content -vv --retries=1
then post full output

3

"Path/File.mp4"-> should be a file in onedrive

!rclone copy "remote:folderFile.mp4" "/content" "/content -vv --retries=1

/bin/bash: -c: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
/bin/bash: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file

  • that is not a valid rclone command
  • not a valid bash command
  • not the same rclone command that you posted up above
  • please stop redacting your commands, makes it harder to help you, ok??

run the following command and post the full output.
please stop redacting the real command and output, ok??

rclone copy "remote:folder/File.mp4" "/content" -vv --retries=1
