General :: Files Picked For Sync But Not Appear On Folder
Oct 4, 2010
I have 2 Mounts /mnt/Movies and /media/Movies, mnt goes to a network drive that is mounted via cifs and media is also a network drive mounted via NFS. I normally keep drives in sync using rsync and have done so with these drives. But for some reason there's a bunch of files that on /media/Movies that just wont copy over to /mnt/Movies. I've tried touching the files and then running rsync with the whole file option it picks up the files need to be sync'd but they don't appear.
I've tried using cp on the missing files but the files just never appear but it does take about the right time for the prompt to come back indicating it would be copying the data. So my next idea was to use mc. I compared the 2 directories and it selects 83 files that are not in both folders, so then I tell it to copy them, and it comes back saying 'target already exists', if I overwrite or update they still don't appear. I've unmounted the shares, reboot the server and both network drives and run the network drives disk check but nothings helping. I'm trying to avoid deleting the folder and just rsyncing everything again.

OS: ubuntu 10.04 lts. Runing on latest oracle virtualbox vers.
This works:
Established ubuntu one. Able to log into ubuntu one. Able to make folders.
This doesn't work:
When uploading files, it prompts "uploading". But never finish. And files do not get uploaded. To sync a folder on desktop and ubuntu one never works.

I've got Ubuntu One syncing a single 25MB folder on 4 computers. On one of these computers, the ubuntuone-syncdaemon process constantly pegs the CPU, using from 50-80% long after any sync-able files have been modified and successfully synced. The process is only using 8.9MB of RAM.
Specs:
Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid)
Kernel 2.6.32-24-generic
1000.8 MB RAM
Pentium 4 2.53GHz
Free disk space: 280.9 GB
System monitor shows 56.8% total RAM usage, 15.4% swap file usage.

I was asked to remove the Linux partition off a computer that had a Windows XP partition as well. I used a GParted LiveCD. I thought there might be problems, so yeah, no great surprise when after the Linux removal it couldn't boot into Windows. I saw on a different thread, that one can use a LiveCD to change a few Grub settings or something, since I don't think the Windows partition itself is damaged. However, the DVD-ROM isn't picked up by the computer. I want it to boot off the LiveCD, but no success. (And I have changed the boot order, since that is how I got the GParted to work in the first place) I checked the LiveCD on another computer and it is not damaged.

How would i go about copying all .jpg or .JPG files from a folder and all its subfolders to my /usr/name/pictures folder? I'm guessing I'd have to use some sort of .[jJ][pP][gG] to get all the pictures from other examples i've seen, but really not sure how to use that in a recursive cp.

I am thinking of using rsync to sync my Music folder to another folder called Music on an external USB drive. I will be using the Scheduled Tasks front end to schedule the syncs. What should the syntax look like when I put it in Scheduled tasks. I want this to be as simple as possible.

I got a folder that I transfer stuff to all the time. the folder is in chmod 775 but when i upload folders and files, they are given chmod 700, but i want it chmod 775 everytime i upload something. so far i have logged in to my linux computer and did a chmod -R 775 to the folder every time i uploaded something to it. is there a function somewhere to make it 775 everytime i upload or can i have something run a script, so i don't have to go in and write it everytime i upload something?

I want to be able to synchronise files between 2 remote computers in both directions. Say for example that I want to synchronize my /home/Documents directory with <username>@example.com:/home/Documents What's the easiest way to update the folders in both directions, so that new/updated files on my home computer get transferred to the remote computer, and new/updated files on the remote computer get transferred to my home computer?

The problem is this: My movie collection is growing that large that it no longer fits on the 3TB storage I have available for it in my server.therefore want to start using external disks, but as I don't want to waste electricty I want to switch this drive on only when I want to watch a movie which is on this drive. This drive will be connected to my server running Fedora 15 x64. The movies will (most likely) be played by a machine running XBMC on an Ubuntu minimal install (10.04). Currently I use NFS to create a mount on this machine to my media folder.The question: How can I best setup this external drive and shares etc so to have these movies available from my XBMC machine when I switch on the drive, but nothing crashing when the drive is off (while the XBMC machine stays on)?

I've discovered Firefox Sync a while ago, and it's absolutely awesome. Now of course I'd like most of my software to work this way! So is there a way to get the same behavior with Thunderbird?

I'm dual-booting Windows 7 and Lucid, and I want to sync my documents folder from /windows (a mounted ntfs partition) to Ubuntu One. I right-click and it lets me click on sync with Ubuntu One, but then it does nothing. I've checked and I am able to sync other folders from my ext4 filesystem. Any ideas?

How can I sync a folder between Ubuntu's main drive (ext4) and Windows 7... My case is, I want to get Pidgin (using it on Ubuntu and Win7) saving the chat logs in one "common" folder. I tried using the "Make Link" thing but on Win7 the folder I made link to appeared as a file. So yea, basically I wanna know how to sync a folder. Also if someone could help me, the chat logs saved by Pidgin in Win7 are saved somewhere in Documents and Settings, probably not giving me the option to change where the logs get saved.

I did some searching, but haven't found a good solution to this problem I'm having. While there are a lot of issues with syncing between my desktop and netbook (we'll get to them another time), I am really trying to get two folders from my desktop to sync to Ubuntu One. I followed the reinstall steps here a few times and it has almost fixed the problem.
My last issue is that my .mozilla folder won't sync at all. If I right click on it in Nautilus, I get a greyed out "stop syncing with Ubuntu One." I can't stop it and can't start it. If I do u1sdtool --list-folders, then this folder isn't shown. I've tried disconnecting, reconnecting, and a lot in between.My question is, is there a config file or something like that where maybe this .mozilla folder is still set up that I can just delete? Clearly, it thinks it's set up when it isn't and I'm not sure if there's somewhere on the filesystem that can be checked or cleared. One thing I did notice when I was going through the instructions above is that I don't have a .share folder and thus no /local/ubuntuone under that.

I'm wondering what the best way to sync certain folders located on my network server with my Ubuntu laptop is. I've tried Unity, but it was a little too geeky for me . Dropbox would be perfect, except people were having issues syncing with network folders, some losing all their files in the process. All I want to do is synchronize a few folders with my local "My Documents" folder on my Ubuntu laptop, so I can write my school papers without an internet connection. Then, when I'm connected again, I should be able to sync with the folder on the network. It should also work vice-versa as well (update a file on the NETWORK, sync, then access the updated file on my Ubuntu laptop).

I've setup both a http server and svn server and have a SVN project residing in the "/srv/svn/kdrepos/THOR/" directory. I would like this project to automatically do a checkout into the /srv/www/htdocs/ on update/commit. Is this in any way possiblely? Some sites (xp-dev) for example offer an option to have a repository automatically 'added' to a webserver. Does anyone know how is done? I'd xp-dev if it wasn't for the fact that I also need full access rights on the machine

OS: ubuntu10.04 LTS running on latest oracle virtualbox. This works: I have opened a ubuntu one account. And I can log into that account. But I have to do so by: clicking 'ubuntu one' in top bar, and click 'account' in prompt that appears. Shouldn't log in take place automatically? Being logged in I'm able to make new folders. And appearently able to enter them (they are empty I quess) If I try to upload a file clicking 'upload file' in ubuntu one. A prompt appears and I choose the file to upload and click 'continue'. The prompt says "uploading" but nothing happens. If I choose a document folder and click 'mouse click right'. And then click 'sync with ubuntu one'. It prompts that it syncs the folders. But nothing happens.

I have an external 2.5" eSATA drive which up till now was using via USB2.0 connection and was working perfectly. The drive is pretty new - I think less then a year and it's a Seagate too of which I think to be more reliable although still consumer based.I had connected the drive to FreeBSD 8.0 32bit on my server in ReadOnly mode using ext2fs in order to stream the information across my network.
Plugging the drive into Linux recently yielded everything performing fine, as the drive stores all the seasons of a TV show I started recognizing that things where outa whack when the linearity of the episodes stopped being sequential and previous episodes started playing when clicking an incremented episode.
The drive is formatted with the ext3 filesystem and I have already attempted to run e2fsck -p on it which showed up as the drive being 'clean'.I then attempted to use my notebooks eSATA Express card to connect the drive via the eSATA cable as I have found it to be more reliable then the USB2 / ext3 solution which I've had my fair share of problems with. However, the drives TOC or Journal maybe damaged by whatever reason so I will need to repair that.I stumbled across Magic Rescue and so far have compiled it but not used it as I wanted to be sure first if there was another way to do this.

In my bash script I need to move files in a folder if it is not in use.
Code:
for entry in `ls /root/shared_storage/input`; do
echo $entry
run=`lsof /root/shared_storage/input/$entry`
ru=${run:0:5}
echo $entry
if [ "$ru" == "" ]; then
........
It worked fine sometimes but sometimes it just get stuck at lsof. Is there any other way that I can use here to check if the $entry is using some other process?
