KBFS file greyed out after moving to private folder

[davidmytton]

OS X 10.12.4 (16E195) my log id: 5a3a6263959aa76340e8d61c

1. Copy a file into /keybase/private/username/
2. The file appears to be successfully copied
3. Notification appears: encrypting and uploading
4. After a few moments, the file becomes greyed out

Double clicking the file to open it has no effect within the keybase folder. Copying it to desktop does work, although there is a warning that the file is in use.

The file appears on other devices in the same greyed out state.

HI @dmytton, thanks for the report. That's super weird. I don't see much of interest in the log, except that the Apple metadata file (._david.mobileconfig) is deleted by something on your device shortly after the main file is created. To my knowledge that's not common, I thought it was supposed to be long-lived, but I might be wrong. It's possible we handle that quick removal a little badly (I have fixes for similar issues under review now, but not yet in a release).

Maybe you can try some of the tips listed here or here to see if they help? I'm specifically interested in what the extended attributes look like (xattr -l david.mobileconfig), and also the mtime/ctime from stat david.mobileconfig. Thanks!

Trying to SetFile -d had no effect:

dm-mbp:davidmytton david$ SetFile -d 05/03/2017 david.mobileconfig 
dm-mbp:davidmytton david$ GetFileInfo david.mobileconfig

However, using xattr did fix it:

dm-mbp:davidmytton david$ xattr -d com.apple.FinderInfo david.mobileconfig 
dm-mbp:davidmytton david$ GetFileInfo david.mobileconfig 
file: "/keybase/private/davidmytton/david.mobileconfig"

I sent a new log file after making these changes above: c4b9e5f8b2f764781883d61c
