Synchronization with pcloud service using webdav was failing.
Hi, relatively new user here. I hope this is the correct place to post my observation.
About 1 month ago my sync with pcloud stopped working. I finally noticed it and resolved it today and hope this may be useful for someone. I noticed that there was an unresolved support topic related to this previously that was closed.
My sync was failing with an permissions error - failed to access info.json
Looking at the info.json file in the browser through webdav, I received the same error.
Looking at the file through the command line using the pcloud app I noticed that it displayed like this:
chris@laptop1:~/pCloudDrive/joplin_sync$ cat info.json
{
"version": 3,
"e2ee": {
"value": false,
"updatedTime": 0
},
"activeMasterKeyId": {
"value": "",
"updatedTime": 0
},
"masterKeys": [],
"ppk": {
"value": null,
"updatedTime": 0
}
}chris@laptop1:~/pCloudDrive/joplin_sync$
Notice that the last line ran into the following command prompt.
I edited the info.json file and simply added an extra blank line at the end and the sync process burst back into life.
I hope that this helps someone.
Chris
