Error: onedrive application is already running

[gtirloni]

At least on Fedora, the onedrive package already installs a systemd unit that starts onedrive.

It seems that the tray app is trying to start onedrive again, which causes the following error:

11/23/22 5:22 PM OneDrive started
11/23/22 5:22 PM ERROR: onedrive application is already running - check system process list for active application instances 

Is this expected? If so, could the docs be updated to say the original systemd unit should be uninstalled?

Hi @gtirloni

You have to disable onedrive unit and install onedrive_tray instead. This will avoid the program starting 2 instances of onedrive.
