Waiting on mountpoints...

[bifa2]

Hi, I know omnistream is the new approach, but since I've failed to get that working on numerous occassions (both upgrade, and fresh install) I'm trying to run this gooby install into my next life 😅 Unfortunately, it's broken again and I've spent the last few hours trying everything I can find from the closed issues.

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl stop mergerfs
sudo systemctl stop rclonefs
/bin/fusermount -uz /mnt/rclone
/bin/fusermount -uz /mnt/google

Outputs:

/bin/fusermount: entry for /mnt/rclone not found in /etc/mtab
/bin/fusermount: entry for /mnt/google not found in /etc/mtab

After this, /mnt only has local, rclone, uploads. I can delete rclone just fine. Running rclean just results in the waiting on mountpoints error again.

I can start rclonefs and mergerfs and /mnt will contain google and rclone but the contents of my Google Drive aren't there. However, they are if I try with rclone lsd GDrive-Movies:`

I've tried rebooting the server multiple times, uninstalling and reinstalling rclone with a reboot in the middle (and not) and still it won't get past the 'waiting on mountpoints' message.

sudo systemctl status mnt-google.mount

Hope you can still help here but if not, I understand!

Ok so rclone.log is full of:

2023/03/29 19:42:10 INFO  : Starting transaction limiter: max 10 transactions/s with burst 10

Ack, yes I was afraid of it happening - I'm sure that has something to do with the new FUSE setting and I'm no longer quite in the loop why that's happening. Would it work for you if you installed an older version of Rclone (or the beta version)?

That said, I'm surprised that you didn't get Omni to work. I saw an issue there (https://github.com/kelinger/OmniStream/issues/53) and I'm ashamed to see we haven't replied to that yet - is your issue related?

[bifa2]

Thanks for the ever so quick reply. I've managed to fix it after finding that rclone thread :)

sudo apt install fuse3
sudo systemctl stop rclonefs
sudo systemctl start rclonefs

As for Omni... I've avoided in part because your replies are instant here and so the service is A+++++, but also because of issues I had in https://github.com/kelinger/OmniStream/issues/39 and seeing others with similar problems. I've a few users who use my server so taking it down for a week of tinkering to try and get things working (and not lose my Plex library) is hard to do 😅 Thank you again, I'll close this and perhaps it'll help some of us legacy users!

Thanks for posting this! I was really banging my head trying to figure out what happened.
