Help setting up resilio sync docker

Need to test this on my test system

Need to test this on my test system

hi morlan, are you running it as a docker image? if so, it would be great to know if you are getting the same problem. I am not able add any folder on my network.

But when I use resilio windows 10, I am able to use it and sync files. So not sure if it is a docker image issue or something I did wrong in my stack.

I run it as a docker and sync with my clients on win10 and macOS.

But I use pro version

Ok that could be the problem perhaps I need the pro version, although it does work on Win 10 using the free version

I have just upgraded to the Pro version with 14 day trial but I am still getting the same issue. One thought I had regarding my volume:

  - /srv/dev-disk-by-label-Hippo/Music/TestSync:/sync

The Hippo drive is not directly connected to the Pi4 which has the docker image - not sure if this is the reason?

I think I am getting closer. I have changed the volume as follows:

 - /srv/dev-disk-by-label-Hippo:/sync

On the Resilio, I can now add a folder and can get to TestSync subfolder and have linked it with my Android Phone. On my NAS, there are some music files in the TestSync folder but these are not showing up on the Resilio WebUI. In fact, the logs on Resilio state 'Can't find 'TestSync':no such folder in specified location' but ..... it is there???

Do you have SSH access? Then you could try to go into the container and do a ls /sync inside it. The command to get inside it is docker exec -it CONTAINERNAME /bin/bash - if bash is not available try, /bin/sh instead. Could you also post a screenshot of your volume config, while we're at it?

Yes I have SSH access. It says no such file or directory re: ls /sync. On the other command I got this message

 $ docker exec -it resilio-sync /bin/bash
Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at uni                                         x:///var/run/docker.sock: Get http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.40/containers                                         /resilio-sync/json: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied

Are you executing the docker exec commands as root? The ls /sync command needs to be executed once you're in the container.

I've tried sudo ls /sync but say no such file or directory.

Only the docker exec -it container /bin/bash needs to be done as root. You then should be inside the container, can you verifiy that? Your shell layout in the beginning will change like that:

For example:

Only when you're at that point you should try for ls /sync. <- Since you're root when you connect to the container you don't need sudo.

If you're inside the container and that command returns file not found, something is wrong with the bind mount and we need to look at the config of your container.

  $ sudo docker exec -it resilio-sync /bin/bash
root@272bf79c0853:/# ls /sync
Music
root@272bf79c0853:/# ls /Music
ls: cannot access '/Music': No such file or directory
root@272bf79c0853:/#

It seems there is nothing there even on my drive there should be.

Inside your /sync is the folder Music. So if you want to list the contents you either need to type ls /sync/Music or cd /sync and than do an ls Music without the prefixing / you typed. To put it simply (looking at it from a Windows User perspective): The / is like telling the commandline to look for it the file under C:\Music instead of it beeing in C:\sync\Music

Ok - so the final folder is /TestSync (i.e. /sync/Music/TestSync) and there is nothing in that folder. But on my network drive, I have 2 files which should be showing up in this same folder.

# ls /sync/Music
TestSync
root@272bf79c0853:/# ls /sync/Music/testSync
ls: cannot access '/sync/Music/testSync': No such file or directory
root@272bf79c0853:/# ls /sync/Music/TestSync
root@272bf79c0853:/#

To what path is /sync/Music mounted? /sharedfolder/Music? Could you show me an ls -lah of it on the host system and of the subfolder TestSync too?

Thanks for your help David but in the end I gave up on Resilio and am now trying to get Syncthing to work. I am going to try and install the syncthing docker this week on OMV. But from what I have seen Syncthing seems more intuitive than Resilio, so hopefully will have no issues.
