Books in dropbox folder not showing up on ereader

[Ttwyman]

I've just installed the kobocloud on my kobo Clara and have put a epub book into the folder however it is not showing on my ereader even after restarting the device a few times. This is my first time using code or github so I'm not sure if I have done everything correctly.

Did you have "/mnt/onboard/.add/kobocloud/get.log" file in your kobo device ?

If you could show the content of this file, I can check what is your problem.

No I can't find that on my e-reader. On 3 Jul 2020 4:33 am, Michael Kuo notifications@github.com wrote: Did you have "/mnt/onboard/.add/kobocloud/get.log" file in your kobo device ? If you could show the content of this file, I can check what is your problem.

Could you check steps below to compare with your previous installation?

1. Use official release (https://github.com/fsantini/KoboCloud/releases/download/0.5/KoboRoot.tgz), you could use your complied item.
2. Put this tgz file to the folder (.kobo) of your kobo device.
3. Restart your kobo device.
4. Add your link to the file (.add/kobocloud/kobocloudrc), remember add newline behind your link string.
5. Restart your kobo device again.

It should have log now.

I have the same problem on Kobo Touch. The files are downloaded into .add/kobocloud/Library but they don't show up on the "My Books" section on the main Menu.

I do not have any kobo devices so I need the log to check what happened.

If your installation was right and your device does not have the log, I will guess the KoboRoot.tgz is not compatible to Kobo Touch.

I have all the files and also don't have that file on my ereader, but mine is a kobo Clara so quite a new one. I've uninstall it at the moment and will try again when I get the chance.

Your problem is like https://github.com/fsantini/KoboCloud/issues/29#issuecomment-653978269

If you know how to write shell script, you could add some debug message to check what happened.

My problem is some epub files show in my books some do not. I've used both dropbox and google drive to download. I'm not a coder so I'm hoping someone can help.

4. remember add newline behind your link string.

This and updating my system to the last version made the difference for me. The script now work correctly.

Great, will close the issue!
