[Bug 805189] Re: downloading from ftp sync don't work

 

this is a known problem and will be fixed in scope of the new sync
algorithm. i'll continue working on this tomorrow.

> Also, when I connect to the same ftp sync profile twice on the same
computer (on different local folders), contents of folders are not
synced.

Is it the same instance of Syncany? If so, that's not possible because
you have the same 'computer name'. Only if you connect with two
instances of Syncany to the same folder (using different computer
names), you can sync among them.

Do you see any scenario where this is desirable? I don't see any.

So what you can do is this:

1) Start the first instance: dist/bin/syncany.sh
2) Stop it.
3) Start the second instance dist/bin/syncany.sh -c ~/.syncany2
4) Edit the computer name property in the Settings dialog to something other than the one from the first instance.
5) Stop it.

6) Now start both instances in different terminals at the same time

Title:
  downloading from ftp sync don't work

Status in Syncany:
  New

Bug description:
  When I added profile to sync with my ftp, only uploading to server
  works - when I add some files to synced folder, syncany create some
  files on ftp, but when I (for example) stop syncany, remove config
  files and synced folder from hard drive, then reattach ftp sync, none
  of files are downloaded from ftp. Also, when I connect to the same ftp
  sync profile twice on the same computer (on different local folders),
  contents of folders are not synced.
