How to "purge" unsync object? / File not found:Error: Error: ENOENT

foxmask · 2018-10-08T20:20:18.506Z

in the status window I have 17 items like this one

File not found:Error: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/foxmask/.config/joplin-desktop/resources/0f23dd26afef41cc89936a928024839f.png'. Path: /home/foxmask/.config/joplin-desktop/resources/0f23dd26afef41cc89936a928024839f.png

How to purge them ?
Is this could be a cause of unsync tags I already have on mobile but not on desktop ?

There’s no way to purge them at the moment, you’d have to delete them manually from the sync target (eg. delete resources/0f23dd26afef41cc89936a928024839f and 0f23dd26afef41cc89936a928024839f.md).

It wouldn’t be the cause of tags no syncing since if these resources show up in the status screen it means they’ve been dealt with and are skipped during sync, so the two problems are probably unrelated.

i checked the tags are well deleted everywhere finally.

and I don’t know where are the resources on the sync target.
should I drop them from dropbox if I can found them?

Yes you can, that will also delete them from the devices.

On android its complicated to spot them

I did:

sqlite3 .config/joplin-desktop/database.sqlite
select sync_disabled_reason from sync_items where sync_disabled_reason != '';

and get for exemple

File not found:Error: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/foxmask/.config/joplin-desktop/resources/0f23dd26afef41cc89936a928024839f.png'. Path: /home/foxmask/.config/joplin-desktop/resources/0f23dd26afef41cc89936a928024839f.png
File not found:Error: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/foxmask/.config/joplin-desktop/resources/00e2d6253c0c46da9708468b09ebb487.png'. Path: /home/foxmask/.config/joplin-desktop/resources/00e2d6253c0c46da9708468b09ebb487.png
File not found:Error: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/foxmask/.config/joplin-desktop/resources/883ee51817194fb2a9cc7f3a7e000699.png'. Path: /home/foxmask/.config/joplin-desktop/resources/883ee51817194fb2a9cc7f3a7e000699.png

then with an editor a search replace
File not found:Error: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open by touch and drop then end of the line '. Path ....'

then copy paste all touch line
then

sqlite3 .config/joplin-desktop/database.sqlite
delete from sync_items where sync_disabled_reason != '';

then start joplin and sync and all is gone
