yes, foo/... looked like this: drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 4096 Apr 12 13:17 foo The apps in use were OpenOffice Writer & Impress. Little Sophia got quite desperate when her saved presentation disappeared multiple times...

Environment: Mac OSX Mavericks, btsync 1.3.106, Ubuntu LTS 12.04 btsync 1.3.106 Sync: /Users/sophia/Documents -> /home/sophia/Documents, only the Mac side gets touched, Linux ist just a backup (for now). Symptoms: files in a Mac subdirectory *disappear* shortly after saving them; luckily they are still available from the .SyncArchive directory. They never showed up on the Linux destination. The logs on the Linux destination indicate a permission problem: [20140701 23:39:37.319] SyncFileEntry: failed to create folder /home/sophia/Documents/foo/bar - 13 And indeed, the foo/bar destination belonged to root; this was left over from the first attempts with the raw btsync tar package. How can I make sure that a problem on the destination does not clobber my source?
