I used
rclone copy /path/to/dir remote:copydir to make a copy on pcloud of all my files and that worked fine, however I have not been able to update the copy with rclone sync.
I thought I’d be able to work it out from there but I didn’t, so I ran a rclone attempting to sync one file (a small bash script) with rclone copy -v /path/to/dir/file.sh remote:home/copydir
Hoping the "-v flag would make things clearer. It didn’t. I have truncated the output to exclude most of the per the per-minute updates it was giving me but it was as follows.

Thanks for the help. As I was able to drag and drop folder into pcloud drive on my desktop hadn’t tried the website, when I did I realised that my 2TB allowance was full, I don’t know why it was still letting me copy files across but it’s now working. rclone wasn’t causing the error after all.
Hi
I'm having the same problem.. I am getting hundreds of these, and rclone chewed up all the resources on my machine (All CPU's maxxed out, and most of RAM and swap space used.)
I can confirm the API mostly works, the tokens are valid, and the files I am copying include directories, which are visible in the pCloud web gui.
I am strongly suspecting large files cause the problem. I have 'rclone copy' running now using pcloud as the destination and its currently using 90% CPU, and 20GB of memory (16GB memory and 4GB swap.)
