7/4/2023 0 Comments Sync folders in vista![]() ![]() folder A (191 Gb, 204 000 files) shared with PC2, PC3.At the begining 2 were on Wifi.īut eventually all of them were on Ethernet (cannot tell you the bandwidth). Thanks to both of you for your kind answers and encouraging support.ģ PCs on a home LAN behind an ADSL box. See, even I, as a syncthing user, not dev, am willing to help. ( logcat is the android command to show the logs, GTFO is a nontechnical abbreviation. There is a saying in the android community: “ logcat or GTFO”. But back to the logs: They would be more helpful than any explanation. Did you just install syncthing and used the “defaults” or did you tweak anything ? That’s ok, but a dev should know. This way you tell people to “fix their docs” since they seem not to be clear enough. Try to create them, if you fail how to: ask. Is it one folder with one 191 GB file, or 191 files á 1 GB or 191.000 files a one kB ? I’ve seen all of this, and all have their own issues. 100MBit, 1GbE, WLAN ? How long will it take you to copy a 10 GB file from A to B ? This is essential to decide if your issue fails on physics or on a software problem. What network speed is between the 3 hosts. So even if a tech/dev was willing to answer your part he has to ask you questions. You are asking a question which raises a couple of returned questions. ( whatever a PR is ).īUT! ( and now we come to your technical problem ) Ignore replies like “you better send an PR than complain”. Any minute they waste by explaining the obvious ™ is a minute less spent on coding. Devs don’t want to explain, they want to code. Try to consider yourself on the other side. To make it short: Don’t give up, keep asking, keep reporting! I’m in this business for some years now ( 4\d ) and I keep telling developers “Try to explain this to your mom ||dad”. If yes, remember that I am an IdiotĬoncerning your technical unrelated remarks you have my full understanding. But I am thinking of stopping the folder sharing and restart with a new folder.ĭo you have any suggestions. There are thousens of them and on Windows, this is not easy to do.įor now, 80 Gb of the 190 Gb have been synced. I did not change any files in the source directory.įrom the forums, I understood that I should “touch” the source files. In the replicating directories, I have hundreds of temp files: 15:15:00 INFO: Puller (folder “SYNC DOCS PARTAGES” (xxxxx-yyyyy), file “toto.mp3”): finisher: pull: peers who had this file went away, or the file has changed while syncing. Then, in the console window, on a regular basis, I noticed the following message on hundreds of files: I though, based on forums, that it was related to the UI interface running, (So this does not seem to be specific to one PC, for example the Vista PC). Some other source folders are on another PC and do not replicate to the other PCs. Some source folders are on 1 PC and do not replicate to the other PCs. ![]() The largest folders do not sync or (maybe) progress very very slowly. Some of the folders (the smaller ones) synchronised. I trying to sync 3 PCs: 2 under winwows7 and 1 under Vista.ĥ shared folders with very large contents (1 folder is 191 Gb). Some discussions finish by very technical recommendations that are almost impossible to understand to everybody (and even to engineers like me…).Īnswerers should consider that they are talking to idiots (like me).Īfter saying that, if you still accept to help, here is my problem:.Syncthing users could be people who want to sync two PCs, have no skills to help and did not think they would spend some much time trying to get it to work. ![]() However, time is money and if this tool appears to be a trap because it requires high technical skills, then this should be printed on the home page.Īnd on forums, you cannot finish a discussion by “If you are not happy, feel free to help!”.
