What is the problem you are having with rclone?
I tried running rclone in Termux, both on my Android phone and Tab. I tried to copy the entire contents of their storages (/sdcard and /storage/0114-6400 of phone and /sdcard of the tab) in to respective three separate encrypted remotes on OneDrive.
-
Both devices fail to copy some files because of file paths that are too long, which is expected. However, instead of skipping those files and moving on to other files, copying stops after some of those PathIsTooLong error messages. Note that all the error messages are PathIsTooLong error messages (except for the last two of course). This issue happens every time I try. (The directory is uploaded to some extent. So the device immediately starts listing the files with long paths and then, the copying comes to a halt(i.e., the $ sign of the terminal is displayed). The directory is NOT completely copied yet. The source and destination folder sizes are totally different on cloud and on local storage.The same thing happens with the the internal storage on phone(/sdcard), only with a different number of error messages. Those too are all PathIsTooLong messages.
-
Not sure if this is an error with rclone or not, but when I tried copying the external storage to OneDrive, the copying works fine, except that I found that about 5GB of storage were reduced according to the file manager after the command to copy was executed. I terminated Termux before the copying was complete. Could these possibly be junk/temporary files that were deleted? I can't figure out what is missing(if anything is missing, that is).
-
Again, not sure if this an issue with rclone, but I found some files that were supposed to be copied were somehow in data/data/com.termux/files/home directory when I ran an 'ls' command. Some files from my source(source for copying) and destination(destination to be copied to) were listed. This is what the 'find' command produces.
~ $ find

./UniOneDriveEncrypted
./UniOneDriveEncrypted/temp1.xlsx
'Storage' folder has much more depth in terms of subfolders. UniOneDriveEncrypted is the remote name. 'temp1.xlsx' was actualy initially uploaded for testing purposes, and since was deleted. It was encrypted so that wasn't the name that appeared when it was uploaded.
Is this to be expected? Should I care or not? Is there a way to clear the data? Can I just delete Data in App info? Any advice is appreciated.
