Harold Feit Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Put a "~" before any entry in your syncignore that you want to apply to all subfolders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aranjedeath Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 I have a very small bug report (or perhaps just an edge case, I think!) I have sync on a mac laptop and it moves from my home network to my school network while asleep. When this move is made, sync (I think) does not re-forward ports or whatever is necessary to sync out of a network. This means that sync does not work when I get to school unless I restart sync or my pc (same difference). Can something be changed to check ports or recognize different networks, or in some way detect and handle this case better? Thanks for the great work.

jameshaven Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 My files are not going to syncarchive. What should I look at to fix? I just went to restore a file and realized it hasn't been working for at least a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonCamilo Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I'm having some issues with temporary files. Sync leaves .!sync files stuck when it's trying to copy temporary lock files generated by AutoCAD when opening a drawing. When you open a dwg file with AutoCAD it generates 2 dwl files to avoid the first file to be edited at the same time by another person. BT sync tends to leave a !sync file for those files that are not erased by the user but just disappear when closing the main file.I experienced the same behaviour with other temporary files from other programs. As a workaround could a rule be established to avoid those files? Maybe in syncignore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oniamigt Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Hi everyone. I have the problem that I cannot set the speed limit of downloads and uploads. I have set it to 150Kb/s because my connection is slow and there are other machines in the network which also need some speed. But Bittorrent Sync will still download or sync with the maximum speed it gets. Is this a bug or is there a fix? Thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuxpoldo Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) I see that a lot of people here is posting log files.

daishi4u Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 I posted this in the wish list, but indexing takes forever when you boot the computer. Can't the index be stored in a file on the hard drive or something? It's not like files on the computer change when it's off...

TumbleCow Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 On a setup where the file is updated on an OS X machine, and synced to 64-bit FreeBSD and Linux boxes. With version 1.2.73, I occasionally get an issue where a single file just refuses to update. The file keeps on being re-transmitted over and over. The receiving party shows the following error in the log; PIECE 0 FAILED HASH CHECK It's actually quite difficult to get rid of this error. So far the only thing that has worked for me is to move the file to ~/tmp, stop all clients, remove any remaing !sync and !syncOld files, start all clients, and move the file back into the sync folder.

Guest Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Hi TumbleCow, could you please send us debug logs from your machines? You need: Step 1. Turn on Debug Logging. Mac: click on BitTorrent Sync icon and select "Enable Debug Logging". Linux: create file debug.txt with contents of FFFF in the folder where btsync binary is located. Step 2. Reproduce issue. Please let Sync collect logs for at least 15 minutes to get enough information. Step 3. Attach log files and send to syncapp@bittorrent.com. Mac: ~/Library/Application\ Support/BitTorrent\ Sync/sync.log Linux: ./sync/sync.log Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrpbdy Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) Using Windows 2008 R2 Server with Bittorent Sync version 1.2.73 As per this thread http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/25076-failed-to-download-postdownload-cannot-create-a-file-when-that-file-already-exists/ , I too am having this issue where I see "PostDownload: Cannot create a file when that file already exists." logged for numerous files, and the modified file is not sync'd. After turning on logging at the affected machine I see numerous entries such as these that explain why: [2013-11-30 10:10:11.873] TorrentFile: failed to rename \\?\E:\MP07LiveDocBackup\Ahead\4\MRUClients.ini into .SyncOld - 183[2013-11-30 10:10:11.898] Error: \\?\E:\MP07LiveDocBackup\Ahead\4\MRUClients.ini - PostDownload: Cannot create a file when that file already exists. I've restarted BTSync several times and the issue returns, I've examined the process via Procmon and can see that the process is failing when it tries to rename MRUClients.ini to MRUClients.ini.SyncOld . (ReplaceIfExists = False) The .SyncOld file exists from a previous sync. Manually deleting all the .SyncOld files gets things back on track.

yuriykulikov Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Hi all,thanks a lot for developing this great app!I have an issue with SyncApp. Title: Do not consider all data in not accessible location as deleted and do not delete files on all synced devices Here is a user story if you prefer that:As a user who has a synced folder on an external drive I would like sync to be stopped for that folder if device is removed so that I do not loose my data on all other devices. This can be quite a big issue. I was only able to restore my data from the external drive when I connected it again. I was lucky that I still had it. How to reproduce:Precodition:1. Synced folder is located on device Alpha on a hard drive2. Synced folder is located on device Beta on an EXTERNAL hard drive3. Devices have sync app running3. Folders are completely synced using a secret (not the read-only one)Action:1. Remove the external hard drive from the device BetaExpected:1. Folder on device Beta is marked as not accessible2. Sync is stopped for the folder on device Beta3. Sync is stopped for this folder on device Alpha - just like if device Beta went offlineObserved:1. Folder on device Beta is marked as not accessible(OK)2. Folder is cleared on device Alpha. Logs says "Beta removed file XXX". Data is lost(NOK) I think this must be quite easy to reproduce. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ByteHeaven Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Seems that current Android program, when opened rarely, replaces newer files with older ones when manually synced. Also iPhone problem with showing old files on server and not getting rid of them seems to be on Android too. Program is not syncing correctly with other clients the list of current files?
