Hi
I'm trying to mound my GDrive with rclone using :
rclone mount gdrive: /mnt/gdrive
It looks ok but lot of files have a 0 size and looks empty when I try to copy them
I get sucessfully the same files with rclone copy thus I think the gdrive: configuration is OK
What am I doing wrong ?
Thx
what version? rclone version
Show us what you mean and a -vv log?
Sorry, I'm using 1.47 on a debian host
Here is the log (I mounted the drive and dit a cp of a google sheet to my local drive, the resulting target file is empty) :

It looks to have copied it down fine. Is it zero bytes? or when you open the file is it just 'empty' in whatever program you are using?
Can you provide:
rclone lsl gdrive:"My Folder/toto.xlsx"
ls -l /the/local/file//toto.xlsxThe file is empty 0 bytes :
-rw-r--r-- 1 xxx xxx 0 May 22 13:28 /tmp/toto.xlsx
The rclone lsl gives
-1 2019-05-22 12:50:34.511000000 toto.xlsx
rclone copy gives a good file :
-rw-r--r-- 1 xxx xxxx 2745299 May 22 12:50 toto.xlsx
I think that is happening because those files are 'google docs' and not regular files. I can recreate that fine by copying from the mount.
https://rclone.org/drive/#import-export-of-google-documents
You may want to try to specify the export formats specifically. See if that helps? I would think this is a bug because the default should be used for docx/xlsx per the doc.
EDIT: That didn't work either specifying the --drive-export-formats..
On the 'con' side, if you do this and edit these directly from the mount, they will be re-imported and since its 'lossy' this may not be what you want anyway.
@ncw Is this a known issue on a mount? I couldn't find an issue for this.
Found it.
" Google docs will transfer correctly with
rclone sync,rclone copyetc as rclone knows to ignore the size when doing the transfer.However an unfortunate consequence of this is that you can’t download Google docs using
rclone mount- you will get a 0 sized file. If you try again the doc may gain its correct size and be downloadable."
root@xxxx:~/test# cp "NS xxxx.docx" /tmp/; ls -l /tmp/*docx
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 22 10:46 /tmp/NS xxxx.docx
root@xxxx:~/test# cp "NS xxxx.docx" /tmp/; ls -l /tmp/*docx
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 297796 May 22 10:46 /tmp/NS xxxx.docx
Thx. Thus, I can't do my backups that way.
Thx !
