No matter. Works for any peer, actually.

Dear community, Resilio Sync 2.4.3 is now officially available. You can get it via direct links below, "Check now" button in app or via official download page. Auto-update is not available yet. UPGRADE Resilio Sync 2.4 is released with Resilio brand, it is treated by OS as new application and will propose you to migrate all your settings from old BitTorrent Sync app (settings are backed up during migration). Please carefully read these articles about updating to Resilio Sync and migration of settings. DOWNGRADE Resilio Sync will make a backup copy of all your settings prior migration into "sync-v2.3.7-1471003319.backup"-like folder (version and timestamp may vary). If you decide to return to 2.3.*, you'll need to manually copy the content to your storage folder, remove Resilio Sync and be aware of next downgrade drawbacks: You'll downgrade to "Free" version and you'll have to re-apply license manually. File association with license files *.btskey is broken so you'll need to apply license in BTSync UI Linking new devices to downgraded Sync is not possible. You'll need to recreate identity if you want to link some new device. Downgrade is not supported for Selective Sync folders (as all placeholder files are renamed to *.rsl*). If you downgrade and your Sync has Selective Sync folders, your files are going to be deleted on all peers.

@BensTech I would appreciate if you refrain from hasty and wrong conclusions. The fact that we do not enforce HTTPS doesn't mean it is not available. Here is a sample screenshot from my lab NAS. No special tweaks, pure clean installation. HTTPS works just fine. Also proved working after upgrade 2.3.8 to 2.4.x. If you are willing to debug your issue - contact me over contact support form.

answered by Helen here.

@BensTech Unfortunately, enforcing HTTPS always causes certificate warning OR requires tech skills from user to issue proper certificate. Both scares users away.

@Blubern Actually, files get into archive when someone or something removes them. For example, if your files get deleted on Computer, your NAS will follow and also remove files, but just in case will put them into Archive folder for 30 days. I suggest checking if your files are in folder above .sync. If no - check which app on your peers could remove your files.

Hi, Doable in 2 ways: Either create a share, ensure it is on NAS and all other your devices. From now on, any sub-folder you put there will be synced to NAS and all other devices who get this share. Link your computer that is going to produce new shares and NAS in My Devices. On NAS, ensure that it accepts all new folders in "Connected" mode. That's it. All new shares that you add on your PC will appear on NAS and start syncing.

@BensTech By default, Sync's WebUI only provides http. You need to explicitly enable HTTPS (and Sync will propose the self-signed cert, causing browser security warning) in both BTS and Resilio Sync.

@Bidule200 Just copy it from some other instance or save on first OS, then add a folder on second OS. It'll still warn you about the ownership, but if the key is the same - folder should keep syncing.

@Bidule200 There is a way to cheat Sync, though it is not officially supported. The trick is to use the standard folders and ensure that the key you use on another OS is the same. It SHOULD work and Sync will rely on mtimes of files during synchronization, although we never tested it in lab and can't guarantee it is going to work.

@stevegoldenberg In official package for debian-based OS, Sync can run in 2 ways: as your current user (systemctl --user start resilio-sync) and as rslsync user (systemctl start resilio-sync). It looks like you used both ways and as result got 2 instances running simultaneously. Same is applied for systemctl "enable" command. Just pick which one is more convenient for you and use only one way.

Geoff, The package you use is unofficial and no longer is supported by it's creator, so I can't advise you where to find debug.txt. Though, searching thru your drive with sudo find / -name debug.txt should do the trick.

@kaso Looks like sync's extension for Explorer is not working by some reason. Take a look if this article helps you.

@chmars2020 Currently, there is no comparison chart. I'm really not sure if one to come, as Sync and Connect are really different products and with further development become even more diverse. I'll do my best to help you comparing these 2 products at currently released versions (Sync 2.4.1, Connect 1.3.5) What is common Both Sync for Workgroups (SWG for shortness) and Connect share the same core engine. I.e., at the end of day there is a set of folders that are getting synchronized between peers. Folders can be RO and RW. Both have API which can be used to control clients. What is different Folder types SWG can create advanced, standard and encrypted folders, selective sync or sync all Connect only operates standard ones, but it actually does not need advanced folders due to user and groups management. Also connect only supports selective sync for read-only folders. No encrypted folders. Management. SWG has no central management, and each peers has to be managed manually - adding and removing folders, changing folder properties, etc. Connect has Management Console and can automatically distribute folders to all peers and / or remove folders from peers, change folder settings, etc. User management SWG has basic user management implemented via advanced folders: owner can share folder or take permissions away Connect has advanced users and groups management, can unite users in groups, set group profiles and folder access, etc. Data monitoring and statistics SWG has some basic tools to show who is connected, and who is receiving what Connect allows you to see your data distribution progress over all peers and fully monitors what happens on your peers. Clients SWG can run client in UI and UI-less mode. Connect only runs headless clients. Everything is configured by admin Speed SWG is good, especially when it runs in environment where p2p power can be utilized (i.e. where many can connect to many for faster data deliver). Connect is super good as it has special optimized protocol for data delivery over WAN. For the pricing. It's $39.99 per license annually for SWG. For Connect - sorry - you have to talk to our business department as pricing is set individually depending on your use case and amount of computers, users, etc.

Hi Geoff, It's rather easy. You need to locate debug.txt file, and ensure that the first line contains "0" (zero, no quotes) instead of "FFFFFFFF". Then restart Sync. It'll reduce amount of logging to zero :). debug.txt stays in /var/lib/resilio-sync if you installed Sync with our official package.

Do I understand correctly that Folder B is already populated with something when you add it to Sync? If yes, the reason of creating conflicted folder is the fact that folder name "Build to Spill" is spelled with different case (Android OS inherited files case sensitiveness from Linux).

No predefined hosts for Android app at the moment, though we'd like to implement it in future. There is couple more tricks you can try: local peer discovery still works if you have multicast traffic allowed by your router, and you can assign static address to your phone (or just force your DHCP to always assign same address), see which port your Android Sync is using and put predefined host on your PC.

@msmith979 Most likely possible, but it also depends on your android flavor. Your Folder A should be RW, your folder B should be RO, with sync all enabled, enabling overwriting of changed files. In worst case, your Android won't let Sync to adjust timestamps, although in this case Sync will keep internal record of real mtime.

Just for reference.

@TheBigBearUK Sync installs and keeps all the settings in %APPDATA%\Resilio Sync, which is user-dependent. So it could do the trick - once user logs in, his own instance of Sync with his own folders should come up.

@kornac This is kind of by design. The router has a specific architecture "northstarplus" which is not officially supported. Router's OS won't allow you to install some other's architecture package. Googling around reveals Cortex A9 ARM CPU, which gives a hint that delivering and running armhf build is likely going to do the trick.

@TonioDeLamor Sync's behavior is consistent here. All folders synced via Selective Sync bear the same name, no any additional extension added. Apple loves so-called "bundles" which are treated by Finder as files, but from POSIX point of view are folders. Apps are bundles, as well as number of other apple-produced file types (like, .pages, .numbers, etc). Therefore all .app appear as .app. Finder automatically attempts to locate application icon and fails as icon stays as placeholder, so it shows the "no icon" icon instead of standard folder icon. I understand your frustration: you want Sync to treat .apps as files, as they look to be files in Finder. We've got same requests in the past, but unfortunately this is rather complex change in Sync architecture and requires lots of efforts to be implemented. Keeping in mind that Apple themselves tend to get rid of bundles (for example, latest versions of Apple office files no longer bundles, but files instead), it is not clear if the change worth implementing.

@A.X As we don't know which version of glibc on your NAS, take the 2.3 version.
