  1. [Solved] Can't Open Pid File

    in Sync Troubleshooting

    Posted · Edited by Thoronwen

    Right, I had tried to point to the pid file in the configuration file before, but apparently that wasn't a config file that btsync was actually reading :x

     

    For any future readers with the same issue:

    My correct configuration file was:

    /etc/btsync.conf

    I was able to point to the pid file by editing line 10 to:

    "pid_file" : "/usr/bin/.sync/sync.pid",

     

    It's all working now, thanks for the help :)

  2. [Solved] Can't Open Pid File

    Hi there!

     

    My btsync service will no longer start on my Arch laptop.

     

    systemctl status shows:

    btsync[4925]: Can't open pid file /usr/bin/.sync//sync.pid. Permission denied

     

    There is a file at  /usr/bin/.sync/sync.pid, so I guess the double slash is just wrong. How do I point btsync to the correct location? 

     

    Thanks for any help. :)
