Gane O'dwyer Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 Sync v 2.0.128 that is outdated app version and I advice you to update it to the most recent one. Do you you observe' folder not found' error in the app UI? Could you check once again that the drive is mounted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triarii Posted July 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 I'll screen shot the error when i get home. but I think it was a 'cannot access this folder'. i installed the app from the instructions you have for linux. https://www.resilio.com/blog/sync-wd-raspberry-pi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gane O'dwyer Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 Better send a screenshot first and update Sync. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gane O'dwyer Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 ok, but the error on the screenshot attached means that you need to change folder pemissions for the shared folder as the current user doesn't have enough rights or simply change the user under which Sync runs.

triarii Posted July 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 Hi, thanks for replying. the folder was accessible to all users. I did check the permissions. i had to purge the old and new installs, reinstall the newer version of sync and the problem was fixed. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
