Linux the directory ~/.local/share/data/ownCloud/folders/ is empty
nalipaz opened this issue · comments
I keep getting the error:
This file is not in an ownCloud share.
I investigated the code and it is looping through the directory ~/.local/share/data/ownCloud/folders/ checking for config files I think. However, for me that directory is always empty. Perhaps something changed with the ownCloud client and it no longer stores data there. I did see that the list of directories synchronized in the owncloud client are stored in ~/.local/share/data/ownCloud/owncloud.cfg. My file looks like:

I am on Debian Jessie with the latest owncloud desktop client:
$ owncloud --version
ownCloud version 2.2.3
Using Qt 4.8.6
On another note, with the lack of activity on this project I am also wondering if it is dead?
I worked with the ownCloud team to build this functionality into the client, so there's not much point to this project now as the standard client does pretty much everything this does, and more :)
Interesting, I did read that integration issue on the owncloud issue queue, however I didn't find any options on my OS for owncloud. I am using Thunar and Debian and have installed owncloud client as per the instructions on their site. It seems I am on the latest version. I guess I might have to take it up with them if I can't figure out how to get the options to show up in Thunar.
Amusingly I used to use Thunar, and while Thunar isn't officially supported, I did hack something up to call ownClouds builtin thing from a Thunar custom action

You can add it as a custom action in Thunar with owncloud-thunar %F
wow, that works beautifully!
You should really post that as a project so others can easily integrate into Thunar. Thanks for all your hard work and responsiveness on this stuff!
