OwnCloud Sync is connecting but not syncing

@uzanto said in OwnCloud Sync is connecting but not syncing:

Have you selected the local and remote folder in Sync settings?
Also in account settings I select my username by this way username@domain.org not just the username
@Bastos https://bugs.launchpad.net/owncloud-sync/+bug/1591238

I have done all the three advices, but unfortunately no success.
I also tried to add a folder on the device (loacal) to see if it works the other way, but also nothing.

My config:

General Settings
Username
username@domain.com
Password
xxxxxxxxxxxx
Server URL
https://cloud.domain.com
Sync on Mobile Data uncheck
Sync Frequency
15 minutes

Sync Settings
Local Folder
/home/phablet/ownCloud
Remote folder
/

And then, you need to click on Sync Servcie/Sync and the device should start to synchronice

System Information:

BQ Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition
SO Ubuntu 15.04 (r1) - armhf (20170505)

Owncloud Sync

PD: Try uninstalling the app, delete all information, cache, ... and then install it again

I have deleted the app -> restarted -> installed again but all the old settings are there. So how do I purge owncloud?
I tried sudo su -> apt-get purge owncloud but it fails...

I managed to get the settings deleted.
uninstall owncloud -> File Manager (hidden files enabled and in root mode) -> home/phablet/.config/ownclod-sync -> delete the config file -> reinstall owncloud
and config starts new

Thanks @uzanto. I did.

Your advice username@domain.com did not work. I had to chose only username to succesfully connect...

... but unfortunately the previous selected folder config has not been deleted. So I tried adapt settings but same problem.

Does anybody know where and how to delete the entire configurations of an app?

[uzanto]

@Bastos Delete the folders /home/phablet/.config/owncloud-sync and /home/phablet/.local/share/owncloud-sync I think that's all you need.

Have you tried to use http instead https on the address?

[Bastos]

I tried to delete both folders. Configured -> got connection -> set local and destination but all the same

The two differences are,

• that I have not choosen / but a specific directory (Do not want to have 45GB synced..
• I do not use /home/phablet/ownCloud because folder ownCloud is not there and OC has no privileges to create. So I created out of OC /home/phablet/Documents/MobileDokumente

Could it be that it is set to one way sync by default and/or "local has priority" and I have to change to two way sync?

[uzanto]

Have you tried to use http instead https? It's my last bullet...

For me it just worked "out of the box" on my phone and tablet. My config :
Account Settings
Username & Password (same format that when you log in your server website, for me it is just the username, not username@domain.org)
Server URL : https://webcloud.zaclys.com
Sync on mobile data checked (but it also works unchecked)
Sync frequency : 60 minutes (what you want but don't choose "No sync" !)

Sync Folders
Local Folder : /home/phablet/Documents
Remote Folder : /Documents

Local Folder : /home/phablet/Pictures/com.ubuntu.camera
Remote Folder : /Photos/Aquaris

Local Folder : /home/phablet/Videos/com.ubuntu.camera
Remote Folder : /Videos/Aquaris

Sync service
you have to activate the service
you can manually sync to test your config

I use a server from Zaclys : https://www.zaclys.com/
They use the 8.0.4 Owncloud version but they offer the Nextcloud 12 version too.

I tried too with Unixcorn : https://unixcorn.org/
with https://cloud.unixcorn.org and a 12.0.2 Nextcloud version but it never worked for me (no sync).

I suppose that Owncloud-Sync doesn't works with Nextcloud. It would be great thought !
I hope all of this could help you.
