Help and Support

Hi Guys,

today i set up rclone. it cant mount my gdrive fuse:

2017/01/12 21:13:11 rclone: Version “v1.35” starting with parameters [“rclone” “mount” “-v” “gdrive:/Data” “/home/user/gdrive/fuse”]
2017/01/12 21:13:12 Google drive root ‘Data’: Modify window is 1ms
2017/01/12 21:13:12 Google drive root ‘Data’: Mounting on “/home/user/gdrive/fuse”
2017/01/12 21:13:12 Google drive root ‘Data’: Root()
^C

after this nothing happens and i have to quit it. (run as the same user in /home/user)

But i can copy without any issues to acd and gdrive:

2017/01/12 21:14:45 rclone: Version “v1.35” starting with parameters [“rclone” “move” “-v” “test1” “gdrive:/”]

Do you guys have any suggestions?

What happens if you try running as root with sudo?

it’s exactly the same result :cry:

Are you sure it isn’t working at that point? Did you try using the mount?

rclone needs to run continuously while the mount is open - suggest you use --logfile file.log and put it in the background with &

i can use the mount, but its not refreshing. on the terminal, if i create a folder its not shown on gdrive, and neither the other way around.

So do you mean i have to run this command in screen or something like that?

thanks so far for the help :slight_smile:

I only just fixed folder creation! You’ll need the latest beta for that to work properly. Try copying a file to see if it is working.

Yes, a screen would work fine. If you search the forum you’ll find instructions on how to set it up with systemd too.

It’s working now with the latest beta :slight_smile:

Thank you so much for the help.
