rclone: Fatal error: failed to mount FUSE fs: fusermount: exec: "fusermount3": executable file not found in $PATH

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

Using the volume plugin in 1.6.2 fails with missing dependency

What is your rclone version (output from rclone version) Because there was a problem when mounting, I tested two versions. 1.rclone v1.62.2

os/version: ubuntu 18.04 (64 bit)
os/kernel: 4.15.0-22-generic (x86_64)
os/type: linux
os/arch: amd64
go/version: go1.20.2
go/linking: static
go/tags: none

2.rclone v1.63.0-beta.6813.0e134364a

os/version: ubuntu 18.04 (64 bit)
os/kernel: 4.15.0-22-generic (x86_64)
os/type: linux
os/arch: amd64
go/version: go1.20.2
go/linking: static
go/tags: none

Which OS you are using and how many bits (e.g. Windows 7, 64 bit)

ubuntu 18.04 (64 bit)

Which cloud storage system are you using? (e.g. Google Drive)

Microsoft Onedrive

The command you were trying to run (e.g. rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

1.root@hatsunemiku:~# rclone mount Summer:/ /www/wwwroot/spring.hatsunemiku.life/Onedrive --copy-links --no-gzip-encoding --no-check-certificate --allow-other --allow-non-empty --umask 000 --vfs-cache-mode writes 2023/03/16 06:33:01 Fatal error: failed to mount FUSE fs: fusermount: exec: “fusermount3”: executable file not found in $PATH

2.root@hatsunemiku:~# rclone mount Summer:/ /www/wwwroot/spring.hatsunemiku.life/Onedrive --copy-links --no-gzip-encoding --no-check-certificate --allow-other --allow-non-empty --umask 000 --vfs-cache-mode writes 2023/03/16 06:31:54 Fatal error: failed to mount FUSE fs: fusermount: exec: “fusermount3”: executable file not found in $PATH

A log from the command with the -vv flag (e.g. output from rclone -vv copy /tmp remote:tmp)

See above uTools_1678974090412

This problem was discovered on March 14th. At first, it was thought that the fuse on the server was missing, but it could not be updated and installed. I just found the rclone update submitted by the author. I tested it at the first time and found that there is still such a problem. So I give feedback to the author and look forward to solving it as soon as possible.（“Because my English is relatively poor, I almost communicate through computer translation.

Note that another solution is

ln -s /bin/fusermount /bin/fusermount3

This works well.

Running rclone in Docker? Use the latest image, where fuse3 is included.
Running rclone on bare-metal? Install fuse3.

I think this issue should be closed.

sudo apt install fuse3

Should fix the problem.
