harryPotter Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 I have seen this error appear twice on two different files and I suspect that this may be what has been causing my sync to not work properly? They are small files <100KB. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreatMarko Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 Check the system clocks on your devices and the modification time on the files themselves. Sync has determine that these files have invalid modification times (i.e. they appear to have been modified in the future - which isn't possible). Correcting your device's system clocks (if that's the case) should resolve the issue, otherwise, you'll need to "touch" (modify) the files in question on a device with a correct system clock so that the files then have a "valid" modification time, and can sync.

This happens quite often on my computer, about 50% of the time. My system's clock is synced and correct. Resilio is the only app that reports this type of error? This happens when I move files into a synced folder. How do we reduce the amount of occurrences of this type of error? Sync v: 2.5.9 (1088) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Helen Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 if you go and check the file's time in its properties, what is it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The time is in the future. But it only changes after I move files into a Resilio synced folder? If I move files into a normal WIndows folder, the modification time doesn't change into the future. This happens about 90% of the time. What's going on? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Helen Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 I'm not sure that simply moving the file to sync directory will change its timestamp. Unless, there's the same file with wrong timestamp on remote peers? What does Sync History say about this file? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's a new file that I move into a Sync folder. 2. How do I look at the Sync History? Thank you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Helen Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 move the mouse cursor over to "history' icon in Sync UI and do a left-click on it..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Helen Posted March 27, 2018 Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 so please check the timestamp on these files. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
harryPotter Posted March 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 The time stamps are correct BEFORE I drag and drop them (from root folder of same drive) into the Sync folder (of the same drive). But, after I drop them into the Sync folder, the modification time stamp changes to a future time stamp, which is why it has an error warning. If I drag and drop the same file into a normal Windows 10 folder, there is not modification error. The error only occurs when dragging and dropping into a Sync folder.

Helen Posted March 27, 2018 Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 'm not sure that simply moving the file to sync directory will change its timestamp. Please send debug logs from all peers to support and mention file names, and give details about these files - what they are, where' they 're moved from and to, how they're originated on PC. https://help.getsync.com/hc/en-us/articles/206664730-Collecting-debug-logs- Quote Link to post Share on other sites
felipe Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 Hi all! Has this ever been resolved? I have a friend that's encountering the same issue. He moves a file into a synced folder and it gives the warning about invalid modification time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
