rclone is zero bytes

[MountainX]

I'm running Android 9 and Magisk 23.0. I installed rclone-mount via Magisk App.

When I run # rclone config the executable is not found.

sh: rclone: not found

So I searched for it and found it here:

/data/adb/modules/com.piyushgarg.rclone

However, it is 0 bytes. So apparently Magisk App did not install it correctly. In Magisk App, I removed it, installed it again, and rebooted. The rclone file is still 0 bytes, and I still get the error when I run # rclone config .

This is what the directory looks like:

1|:/data/ssh/root # ls -la /data/adb/modules/com.piyushgarg.rclone

Any suggestions?

check the errors during (re)installation.

Do you see any problems on my end in this log? I see a few things like "curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server" but I think that's an issue with the server...

As far as I can tell, the problem is the download server... but maybe I am misunderstanding it.

rclone is 0 bytes again.

i've found temporary fix for this particular problem. Copy your downloaded .zip module to your PC and open it then edit file install.sh. Find line with "curl" part and add -k so it become "curl -k", save it then copy it back to your phone then flash it via magisk, it will work because mine's work.

That did not work for me. It solves part of the problem (the binary is no longer zero bytes), but the Magisk module still does not work.

if the module didnt work then i dont know maybe something with your ROM, because mine work flawlessly.

[MountainX]

if the module didnt work then i dont know maybe something with your ROM, because mine work flawlessly.

I discussed this issue on XDA and Android Enthusiasts and multiple people (with more knowledge than me) said this module is broken.

So it's not just one person on one device. I tried this module on 2 different devices (running respectively LineageOS and stock Samsung firmware). It did not work on either device. Another person who had used this module successfully in the past looked into the issue and said he saw problems (beyond just the curl issue).

I got rclone mount working without this module, so I am not using this module. However, I may look into it more when I reinstall in the future. I would be interested to use this module if all the issues are fixed properly.

Mainly I just want to make sure anyone who cares about this module knows that the issues are not just one guy with one one device who gave up because curl did not work. That was not the case at all. I hope someone will properly maintain this module for the good of the community.

If something is wrong with the module then i dont know, i have no knowledge in this kind of thing. I have 3 different devices some using custom ROM and some using stock all of them works great with this module. Hope this module is properly maintained, it is a good module.

The gz package is broken due to the unexpected end of file.

Also, just to share additional info, Irfan Latif said the following about this module:

The LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable is not being set properly in the module, so the error occurs.
