I’ve tried but it still states that this is the most recent version. But if you go in owncloud dashboard it shows there’s an update and if I try it fails to update via web updater app.
The client connects to the server. The client downloads the share folder complete. If I add a file to the server the client doesn’t download the new file or folder. If I select force Sync that doesn’t do anything.
But if I create a new file on the local machine the client then uploads the files then downloads the newly created files from the server.
Basically the client only downloads from the server at first setup then never downloads anything new unless I create a file locally.
i understood you in this case. But i think no one can guarantee that this is just caused by a possible bug / issue in this outdated version which is already solved in a newer one.
Thats why its always suggested to stay at the recent releases instead of keeping outdated versions running. I'm just not sure why you don't get an update offered as it seems the App Center of Univention already has 10.0.7:
ok I have gotten all the apps I use and now running owncloud 10.0.08 and client version is 2.4.1 but the issue still happing with the client not downloading the newly created files from the server.
I will also note I can see the created files on the web version. This is a external storage that is add to owncloud and added to the owncloud client.
yeah I saw too. but When using the command in occ file:scan --all it doesn’t seem like its touching the files of the external share.
This is a share that ive attached to owncloud and using login with creds, saved in session allows owncloud to use the Active Directory folder permissions. I havent tried the Ajax cron but it looks like that only run if a user goes to the owncloud website. which kinda defeats the purpose of the desktop client I guess maybe ? who knows
This is the only hurdle I have with the syncing of file changes from the server to the client other wise its works great besides that.
Thats perfectly valid if sufficient for your use case! Alternative is to setup WND Drive with Listener, but thats a real project and part of the Enterprise Edition.
Recommend a WebDAV Client like Cyberduck for any Windows users as the Win implementation of WebDAV has its shortcomings …
Plenty. Authentication needs to be repeated frequently. MS Office has a different WebDAV stack and will ask again for authentication while you can’t use the one in the OS anymore. Quite slow, etc.
It has not been fun to use for any serious user till now. Occassionally: fine. Mac and Linux WebDAV work perfectly. Oh and prior to Windows 8 it does not work at all.
But i think no one can guarantee that this is just caused by a possible bug / issue in this outdated version which is already solved in a newer one.
