Stuck at generating list #515

Closed cream68 closed 2 months ago

cream68 commented 4 months ago

It seems as the iCloudpd docker is stuck at

Generating list of files in iCloud. This may take a long time if you have a large photo collection. Please be patient. Nothing is being downloaded at this time

for about 2 days. It has been running without problems for months and most of the photos have already been downloaded. But after updating the docker image it seems to not work anymore.

Also executing commands like docker exec -it icloudpd sync-icloud.sh --List-Albums does not show the list of albums and instead only shows:

Valid multifactor authentication cookie found. Days until expiration: 88

Any ideas?

I have the same exact issue. I have two containers for different accounts, one is working fine and the other was working until 2 days ago. I tried reinitializing, restarting the container, nothing worked.

The output of the docker and the --List-Albums hang at the same line as @cream68 post.

EDIT: The problematic container is linked to an account that's 3 times larger than the one that is working. Also --List-Albums worked after multiple attempts and container restarts. Container still stuck on "Generating ...."

I had a suspicion that this is something from Apple's side (throttling maybe?) as my other container is working fine with the other account.

Stopping the container for a day solved the problem.

Going to resolve this as I can't duplicate it and it looks like it may have been an Apple thing.
