  1. The vast number (I would guess 100%) of the Linux version of btsync is installed on a Linux box, so its not a "special use case" for these, its the norm.
  2. I have a complete log file, its too large, how can I attach it to my posting? And by the way, is anybody from the BitTorrent Sync devs actually reading this? I somehow have the feeling I am talking to /dev/null here :-(
  3. Ok, it seems it does not have to do with DHT, it still happens. This time i copied (not moved!) 9 jpeg files into the "Camera" folder that is synced with my Android phone camera folder. I first created a new folder, this was synced to the device immediately, the new folder appears on my Android. Then I dumped these 9 files into this new folder and now it shows "^ 6.3 MB", sync indicator is spinning, nothing happens. Grepping the log for the folder name only shows repeated the following: [...][20140205 14:13:19.478] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:20.190] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:29.388] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:29.407] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:32.069] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:32.070] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:32.490] State sync finished for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera[20140205 14:13:39.746] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:39.851] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:39.852] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:40.465] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:49.568] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:49.579] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:51.217] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:51.218] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140205 14:13:51.435] State sync finished for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Camera[...]And it stays that way, nothing further happening. Whatever the "state sync" is doing, it must be doing it wrong or interpreting its results the wrong way. Why is it able to determine the exact amount of data needed to upload but does not actually try to do it?
  4. the ignore file by default already contains some of these meta files and folders that various operating systems and file browsers create in each directory and I would like to request the file name .directoryto be added to this list by default. This file is created in KDE by the Dolphin file manager (the default file manager of KDE 4) and contains such settings as whether to show hidden files in this direcrtory, whether to show the files as list or as icons or thumbnails, etc. This file should not be synchronized across different computers because on every computer the user might want to have different preferences for viewing the folder in Dolphin.
  5. I have made another observation: I have also a Windows 7 machine in my network and when sharing between Linux and Windows there are no problems, the problems described in post #1 only occur between my Linux box and my Android phone! Also since I have enabled DHT on all my shares on the Linux box it does not seem to happen anymore (need more testing before i can say this with certainty). How can this possibly affect it? They both see each other even without DHT (on both sides its displayed that the other side is online) what has DHT then to do with it after they are connected already?
  6. Is it possible that this depends on whether the setting "use DHT" is activated or not?
  7. Edit: forget the log below, its the wrong one, I'll try to make another one /Edit Here is some log (grepped for folder name): [20140203 16:15:56.572] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140203 16:15:59.510] [OnNotifyFileChange] /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/testfolder, source = NULL[20140203 16:15:59.510] SyncFilesController [file changed]: processing file "/home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/testfolder"[20140203 16:15:59.510] Added path=/home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/testfolder with fd=50[20140203 16:15:59.511] [OnNotifyFileChange] /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/.SyncID, source = NULL[20140203 16:16:00.577] State sync finished for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download[20140203 16:16:06.607] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140203 16:16:10.379] SyncFilesController [file updated]: processing file /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/testfolder 1391440442 4096[20140203 16:16:10.379] [OnNotifyFileChange] /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/.SyncID, source = NULL[20140203 16:16:10.380] SyncFilesController [file updated]: processing file /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/testfolder/testfile.png 1391374253 276144[20140203 16:16:16.596] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140203 16:16:21.967] State sync finished for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download[20140203 16:16:22.784] [OnNotifyFileChange] /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/.SyncID, source = NULL[20140203 16:16:22.831] Extension: ipv4:[93.218.125.192] for '/home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/testfolder/testfile.png'[20140203 16:16:23.221] Torrent /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/testfolder/testfile.png status:137 error:<NULL> meta:1 conns:1 io:0[20140203 16:16:24.022] Torrent /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/testfolder/testfile.png status:137 error:<NULL> meta:1 conns:1 io:0[20140203 16:16:25.171] Torrent /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/testfolder/testfile.png status:137 error:<NULL> meta:1 conns:0 io:0[20140203 16:16:25.171] Force unloading torrent /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download/testfolder/testfile.png[20140203 16:16:26.672] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140203 16:16:36.610] Found peer for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download 01225B248E83DE5FCE15FAD8148839E634E31BA1 192.168.178.20:10960 direct:1[20140203 16:16:36.678] State sync finished for folder /home/bernd/btsync/Handy/Download
  8. I am running this on Kubuntu and I noticed it automatically starts when I log in, I don't want this. Where is this configured?
  9. Reproducible: always. Steps to reproduce: * Kubuntu 12.04 and BitTorrent Sync 1.2.82 (the one from the launchpad ppa) * have a folder on the Linux PC shared with your mobile phone (or with other PC) * make a new folder outside this shared folder, place a file into this new folder * drag&drop¹ this new folder into the shared folder ("move" not "copy") * watch the user interface in the browser and observe what happens on both devices Expected result: * It should detect this newly placed folder and file * It should begin uploading the folder and the file Actual result: * It will detect this and correctly sum up the file sizes for transfer (shown in the UI) * It will create the folder on the other device * It will not upload the file! It won't upload any files from moved folders (actually it won't upload any moved files at all, even without any folders involved), it will create the entire folder structure with all subfolders that was moved into the shared folder and also correctly count the file sizes of all contained files and display the bytes to upload in the UI but it won't actually upload any files, all I get is empty folders and the UI telling me how many MB there still need to be uploaded but it just won't ever happen, no matter how long I wait. Workaround: $ cd /path/to/the/new/folder $ find . -exec touch {} \; The above workaround works always, at least in my simple scenario but this does not seem to be a good solution, especially when the problematic folder is somewhere deep inside a folder structure and I have no idea which one it is I have to touch every single file in the entire folder and all subfolders every time there is a problem and this might even cause additional problems if more than one peer is involved or it needs synching in both directions. Please try to fix this bug, this software is excellent and there exists nothing comparable on this planet but this one annoying bug makes the Linux version almost unusable. ___________ ¹) drag&drop in Dolphin (KDE) will ask whether to copy or whether to move, choose move (although copy won't work either, copy did work (sometimes) when done from the command line)
  10. The Anderoid app is missing a method to show the secret for a folder. I recently had the use case where I got a new PC, installed BTSync and wanted to add my folders again and all I had left were the folders on my mobile phone (and the old PC was not usable anymore). There is no comfortable way to display/email the existing secrets from my mobile phone to my new PC. The Android app should have menu items for each folder: "show secret", "copy secret to clipboard" and "send secret (mail, etc.)".
