Since OneDrive sync error this morning each sync fetches all items?

discourse is confusing me somehow. This post shall be an answer to @kami but somehow it is not showing as a reply ...

wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laurent22/joplin/dev/Joplin_install_and_update.sh | bash -s -- --prerelease

It works, thank you so much @johnny !

This came up recently I think. It seems that if you press reply to somebody who isn't the last reply (like this one) then you get the link showing so but if they are at the end of the thread then it doesnt show.

My desktop wanted to do a full sync as you suggested it would, after which it was fine.

My Win10 laptop on the other hand continued experiencing the issue. I know this won't help anyone else but after a few hours of retrying, testing, re-installing, looking for anything unusual in logs, etc. I gave up, deleted the joplin-desktop folder, set everything back up, had it sync, and it appears to be fine now. I don't know what caused the issue, but it was clearly something local on my device that is now gone.

Thank you, Laurent, & jonath92 for the help.

Working fine for me with 1.6.5 on Win10 1909 but only after deleting joplin-desktop folder.

edit: also tried on Android, had to clear application data to get sync working properly again.

This OneDrive syncing issue is causing battery drain on my devices (and headaches trying to debug it!).

My experience across the various platforms:

v1.6.6 on Mac - installing the new version resolved (worked around?) the issue without any explicit actions on my behalf
v1.6.6 on Windows - installing the new version resolved (worked around?) the issue, but only after deleting the joplin-desktop folder and reconfiguring the application from an blank config
v1.5.1 on Android - still performing a full resync of all notes upon every sync. I've tried the suggestion above (clearing Joplin's application data) and it hasn't helped address the issue.
v10.5.1 on iOS - still performing a full resync of all notes upon every sync. I've tried to see if something like the Android suggestion above (clearing Joplin's application data) would help here. So I deleted the app then reinstalled/reconfigured it. Doesn't appear to have helped at all.

To reproduce the issue I simply perform a full sync, and then initiate another sync as soon as the first full sync is complete. If the second sync is also a full sync then I know that whatever I've changed hasn't improved the situation. For me a full sync is 9404 fetched items so it takes a while.

Do we have any idea when the fix introduced in v1.6.5 is likely to make it to the mobile applications This really isn't helping their battery life.

Thanks, Matt

So far, there are still errors in onedrive synchronization. It has been nearly a week. I no longer hope for the fix. I started using Google Drive. . .

johnny · 2021-01-11T07:50:09.893Z

You can download Android 1.6.6 from: Releases · laurent22/joplin-android · GitHub. Not sure about ios though.

johnny · 2021-01-11T07:51:17.327Z

on what Platform?

rxliuli · 2021-01-11T08:03:27.563Z

windows

johnny · 2021-01-11T08:18:38.229Z

As others say, it is working on Windows again, it might be another problem in your case?

rxliuli · 2021-01-11T08:36:35.789Z

It can be synchronized, but some files are missing. This is something I cannot accept. I will not use onedrive to synchronize until the problem is completely fixed.

johnny · 2021-01-11T09:01:24.453Z

Did you delete the joplin-folder and reconfigured the app as @DawMatt said? And if so can you say which steps are necessary to get to a state where some files are not synchronized?

rxliuli · 2021-01-11T09:13:19.149Z

I don't want to use some specific steps to deal with them. I just need onedrive to be able to synchronize correctly. If it can't, I will give it up. There is nothing that can't be replaced, it's just the cost.

johnny · 2021-01-11T09:25:15.513Z

I can understand that. It is annoying that Microsoft is not getting it right. But it seems that you are the only still having problems with onedrive after upgrading to 1.6.6 ...

alabamachrome · 2021-01-11T18:18:47.787Z

I tried the new version (1.6.5 on Windows 10 and the sync worked for some time. Now the problem with the endless sync is back again.

syae · 2021-01-11T19:21:36.486Z

Same issue as alabamachrome. Seemed to work on Win10 (after deleting joplin-desktop) and Android (after clearing app data) for a time on 1.6.5 but then came back yesterday.

DawMatt · 2021-01-12T13:26:24.055Z

As noted recently I'd found that v1.6.6 of Joplin had fixed this issue on both Mac and Windows.

I'd since tried the Android v1.6.6 app and it also resolved the issue. It wasn't necessary for the existing app data to be purged first, but as I'd already done that the day before the previous purge might have already cleaned things up enough that the new version would work properly.

Unfortunately the error has come back. Both my Mac and Android devices are currently in the middle of resyncing all my notes even though this is unnecessary, and the "fetched items" count seems to keep building with every sync.

This is getting to the point where I'll need to delete the app from my mobile devices. This constant syncing is destroying their battery life.

Daeraxa · 2021-01-12T17:51:14.305Z

Wish I knew. I'm still relatively new, I've been using a NextCloud host (tab.digital) and besides a brief outage one day I haven't seen a single issue. I haven't used a 'true' WebDAV (or any other) sync target myself but there are a list of WebDAV providers on the faq that seem to work.

I've updated the bug report on GitHub, but not with good news unfortunately:

github.com/laurent22/joplin

Items are fetched infinitely during sync
