[Invalid Time]

I am getting a message at the bottom of the web page - All it says is (warning triangle) Invalid Time. What does this mean and how do I fix it. Please see the screenshot

[Sync not removing files in this 3 way sync situation]

Thanks for these instructions. 

I paused syncing on all 3 devices --- but the log still has records being added to it as though the pause has been ignored.

What next?

 

[Sync not removing files in this 3 way sync situation]

Where do I find the logs please?

[Sync not removing files in this 3 way sync situation]

It doesn't seem to matter which directory I delete from it always appears back again.

I have checked all properties and all is ok. All sync properties are as Read & Write and all Linux file properties are 775.

One more thing I should add is that the files in the directory do get deleted. So that when the directory is reinstated there are no files present, only sub directories.

[Sync not removing files in this 3 way sync situation]

I am syncing on 3 devices.

One directory(Z) exists on device A. This is synced to device B.

Device B then syncs a sub-directory (X) of directory Z with device C.

This all works well.

However, when I delete a sub-directory of directory X it reappears in a few minutes.

The only way I have manged to delete anything is to pause the syncing of directory X and then delete the sub-directories from it on all 3 devices and resume the syncing on all 3 devices.

Needless to say this is time consuming and annoying.

What am I doing wrong?

[[Solved] Database Error External Storage on Marshmallow and 2.3.8 on srver]

I have a found a much easier way to fix this - Just reboot the tablet.

Do you still need the logs - and where would I find them?

[[Solved] Database Error External Storage on Marshmallow and 2.3.8 on srver]

I am running sync 2.3.8 on the server and using sync on an Android with Marshmallow.

I am syncing files to external storage.

Everything works fine until I use the "EXIT" option on the hamburger menu.

When I restart sync it gives me the message Database Errror on the files I am syncing.

If I sync the file to the tablets internal storage there is no problem.

Is this a known bug or am I doing something wrong?

Did you disable 'Simple mode" in Sync on mobile? 

Else, this article may give a few hints and tips.

@Helen - I got it - What I needed to do was set the Default folder location to the SD card.

Thanks for your help

Well, since then version has gone far away, and for today it's 2.3.8 for desktops and 2.3.5 for Android. 

Please visit Google play market to download the latest Sync, or download the apk and latest desktops from this forum topic or the official site. 

So I updated the server end to 2.3.8 and have the current Android 2.3.5 and it will still not work. The process I use is this

I add the folder to the server and make it read/write and then scan the QR on the Droid. It will not let me change the folder name from a bunch of numbers to the filename I want.

So what am I doing wrong?

James, 

Beta is terminated with release of v2.3.0 on January 21 (IIRC) 2016, where writing to SD card is implemented. Please note that it's possible only on Android 5.0 and newer. 

Is v2.3.0 for the server end not the Android end?

@all interested,

There is a beta build with ability to write to SD card available for testing. Please apply here.  

 

 

All feedback is welcome, please send it from the app with logs attached if you find a problem. Thank you. 

 

@Helen

I applied for the beta several days ago but have not had an update filter through to my Android. Is the beta still available?

 

This issue is frustrating. Has it been fixed yet?
