lovely new error after updating just now

Hi, i'm running into this now, do you know how you fixed it? Or why you closed it?

Because the issue was 100% on my side, i was not pointing to the right location.

If your .mounted file is for sure there make sure in the icloudpd.conf you are point to the right location

ok cool, thank you for your reply. I doubled checked the location and even made a new location for the .mounted file both in the icloudpd.conf file and the docker container Advanced settings in my Synology.

I'll make sure to check again as this was working on the weekend so I'm not sure what I changed.

Thanks again.

No problem,

Not familiar with synology but in my case i mounted the photo directory as "icloud" so in my conf file i smply have download_path=/icloud

But you said you had it working before so not sure why that would change but i beleive in my case i had change the name of the share from "photos" to "icloud" but did not update the conf file which is why it could not see the .mounted file.
