Works really nicely so far, I do wish you guys would’ve given a heads up though that you’re working on it, otherwise I see the same problems reported here and no responses.
FYI, WebDAV also seems to work with tools like Kopia now, through rclone that is.
Good job team, @Chris@JimmyB .
I do still worry about file sync through the network drive, I hope that’s the next thing to be remedied, it seems there’s no handling for big filecounts and the caching goes wild.
Yes, sync is a main priority of ours, we have actually implemented an all new solution to do a virtual folder app which we are yet to release, infact it needed it to function properly.
So our goal is to use what we learned with testing this app to repair the live sync
How did you manage to get it to work with rclone? I get this error when i try to create a repo:
connect error: unable to write blobcfg blob: PutBlob() failed for “kopia.blobcfg”: error writing blob using WebDAV: unable to complete WriteTemporaryFileAndCreateParentDirs despite 10 retries: BLOB not found
Try creating the directory beforehand in the non-encrypted section, Kopia may have trouble creating one from scratch, sometimes it does it well, then for some cloud providers it doesn’t.
Then whatever you called the IceDrive connection in your Rclone config use that name and directory separated by colon.
So I called my config in rclone “ice”, I’d use something like “ice:enc” in the path for Kopia, enc being the directory I made in Icedrive.
Yeah, with old versions of rclone works like a charm. Thank you for the info.
Have you tried moving TBs of data thru Kopia/WebDAV since the new server ? I know i got some “Maximum backoff reached” errors on the old one due to excessive network requests.
Are those limits still in place @JimmyB ?
Hey,
are there any long-term experiences with larger amounts of data via Webdav? in the past it was always a disaster. does Synology Backup work with Icedrive Webdav? I’m considering getting Icedrive
