Some files are continuously uploaded to the server, even when they are not modified.
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
It is possible that another program is changing the modification date of the file.
|
|
If the file is uses the ``.eml`` extension, Windows automatically and
|
|
continually changes all files, unless you remove
|
|
``\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PropertySystem\PropertyHandlers``
|
|
from the windows registry.

Syncing breaks when attempting to sync deeper than 50 sub-directories, but the sync client does not report an error (RC=0)
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The sync client has been intentionally limited to sync no deeper than
|
|
fifty sub-directories, to help prevent memory problems.
|
|
Unfortunately, it, *currently*, does not report an error when this occurs.
|
|
However, a UI notification is planned for a future release of ownCloud.
|
|
|
|
I want to move my local sync folder
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The ownCloud desktop client does not provide a way to change the local sync directory.
|
|
However, it can be done, though it is a bit unorthodox.
|
|
Specifically, you have to:
|
|
|
|
1. Remove the existing connection which syncs to the wrong directory
|
|
2. Add a new connection which syncs to the desired directory
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
To do so, in the client UI, which you can see above, click the "**Account**" drop-down menu and then click "Remove".
|
|
This will display a "**Confirm Account Removal**" dialog window.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
If you're sure, click "**Remove connection**".
|
|
|
|
Then, click the Account drop-down menu again, and this time click "**Add new**".
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
This opens the ownCloud Connection Wizard, which you can see above, *but* with an extra option.
|
|
This option provides the ability to either: keep the existing data (synced by the previous connection) or to start a clean sync (erasing the existing data).
|
|
|
|
Make your choice and click "**Connect...**".
|
|
This will then step you through the Connection Wizard, just as you did when you setup the previous sync connection, but giving you the opportunity to choose a new sync directory.
