What is the problem you are having with rclone?
Task: copy 2.5GB file from local (Linux) to Owncloud WebDAV.
Problem: sometimes copies file to remote, but never realises locally and then tries to copy again (see log). I guess some check fails.
What is your rclone version (output from rclone version)
1.57.0
Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)
Ubuntu 18.04
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
Owncloud WebDAV
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)
rclone copy -P --use-cookies --log-file ~/rclone.log --log-level DEBUG --retries 1 --low-level-retries 2 /data/dir remote:dir
The rclone config contents with secrets removed.
