Issues after installing OS 4.1 final
Not too shy to talk
Not too shy to talk


See User information
Hi Chris H

It was a great ANT meeting and happy with my Amiga OS 4.1 final
installation.
I have a few issues and one being your 'FolderSync2' which I have been
using a lot.
Since OS 4.1 final when I try to run it I het a window with the following
text:

"FolderSync2 will backup the folder "OS4.1:" to "OS4.1_backup:" using the
profile "main".
WARNING:  LastSync files do not match, so they have been ignored.
(Unique 1=1c453a54, unique 2=0)
WARNING:  FolderSync2 ended prematurely, leaving synchronisation in an
unfinished state.
Could not start synchronisation because of the above 2 WARNINGs.
ERROR:  Fatal file/dir error cHostDir.makeEntryList(); ExAll() failed"

Any ideas how to resolve this issue?

Another thing that bugs me I can run Filer if I double click on the icon
but I used to be able to run it
when I double clicked anywhere on the Workbench screen, this no longer
works, how do I resolve this?

Thanks in advance.

Mick

You probably need to run foldersync asif it was a first time as now "OS4.1:" is totally different to "OS4.1_backup:" and any files foldersync might have left on "OS4.1:" will no longer be there. Only a guess as I've never used it...

It sounds suspiciously like OS4.1 Final changed something in AmigaDOS which has broken FolderSync2. Whether that is an OS4 bug or a FolderSync2 bug I don't know... Also, I am way behind in OS4 updates, so I don't know when I'll be able to reproduce (and thus identify & fix) the problem.

If you are just using FolderSync2 to perform a plain (one-way) backup, rather than a fancy (bi-directional) synchronisation, then I suggest you try this:
http://aminet.net/package/disk/bakup/BackUp

Unlike FolderSync2 it has a nice GUI . An additional benefit is that it handles soft-links correctly (while FolderSync2 needs an extra program to achieve that).

Well, ExAll has been deprecated for a long time, although I doubt that's the problem.

I tried running one of my sync scripts here and the version of FolderSync2 I have is working.

These are existing directories though which have been synced previously; I don't know if that makes a difference.

Unless OS4 drops support OS3.x compatibility, ExAll MUST work. However, I know there's been a lot of changes on the AmigaDOS side, so accidental breakage isn't impossible.

Strange. That suggests some difference between sicky's system & yours, but without seeing his in person it's difficult to guess what. Could be the filingsystem (although seems unlikely), version of FolderSync2, or how he's using it...

See my PM.

Please let me know if it helps. (Might motivate me to release an update - the last public version is from 2011.)

I don't understand what you are actually replying to. Did the new version I sent you work any better?

Did you check your PM (Private Message) on Amigans.net ? I think this is what ChrisH is talking about.
