I wondered why some files synced via Synchting were missing and had to php /usr/share/webapps/nextcloud/occ files:scan --all manually.

Hi @bjo81,

I actually use Syncthing with Nextcloud as well, and haven't noticed similar issues. Could you provide more details? A minimal repro would be ideal, if possible.

bjo81 commented 11 months ago

Unfortunately I don't now what causes this issue and how to reproduce it. Like mentioned above, Nov 07 00:35:33 was the last log entry, but files got changed afterwards bei syncthing and inotifyscan did not recognize the changes. Do I understand correctly that Scan for is triggered by a change, so it should find the change afterwards?

Yes. Scan for /bjo/files/ should inform Nextcloud about all files and subdirectories under /bjo/files/. I was unable to reproduce the issue by doing something like this:

cd /path/to/nextcloud/files
touch test
touch ../test
rm test; mv ../test test

The inotifyscan log looks like this:

INFO - Found /path/to/nextcloud/files/ DELETE test
INFO - Found /path/to/nextcloud/files/ MOVED_TO test
INFO - Scan for /nextcloud/files/

The Nextcloud database does show the test file.

Yeah, first it also looked ok in my test. Maybe the issue was caused by sshfs/gocryptfs. I switched to juicefs now and will monitor if the issue still persists
