Hi, I am not a user of rclone, but I had the same problem with a Synology NAS sftp and duplicacy, an open source backup tool. I have found out that duplicacy works just fine if absolute path is provided (with double slash between the hostname and the directory, like sftp://user@server:port//directory).
@ncw No problem! There’s a lot of information everywhere and it was actually my fault as I was using an encrypted remote and I focused on the encrypt documentation, I didn’t think about the SFTP one 😦 I guess working late in the evening is not good for clear thinking hahah. Thanks for the effort and the awesome tool 😃
The parameter is this
It got renamed in the backend config unification - sorry I missed that out the changelog. However you can now store it in the config file too (config with the advanced options) which you should find useful as
path_override.I was having this problem with the current regular release and stumbled upon this thread. It wouldn’t happen every time, but after a dozen or so successful transfers, one would trigger this error and cause all the other running threads to stop transferring.
Extremely simple fix: Just put a / at the beginning of the path. Not the entire root path, just a slash at the beginning.
sftp:Plex/TV Shows becomes sftp:/Plex/TV Shows and all is well.
