Rclone Spamming Syslog

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I'm running a service which constantly checks for new files inside a rclone mounted directory which in turn makes rclone put some kind of Logs which includes the file name inside that folder . This is a repeating process and hence it completely fill my syslog (15gb).

I tried to stop it's logging but then it asked about rclone command. And I don't know what this command is? I tried the mount one , but it wasn't it.

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

rclone version
rclone v1.61.1

  • os/version: ubuntu 22.04 (64 bit)
  • os/kernel: 5.15.0-71-generic (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 command --log-file=/root/logfile.log

The rclone config contents with secrets removed.


A log from the command with the -vv flag

That is from an rclone mount running in debug mode. If you turn off the debug mode it will run a lot quieter!

Stupid question. But how may I do so ?

You'd want to share your mount command.

Most likely remove -vv or --log-level DEBUG

Yeah just saw I had -vv enabled. Imma remove it then.

You guys don't know how much you've helped me. I was stuck with AI robot who was just as confused as me :sob:.
