Description

MEGAcmd version

2.1.1

Operating System/Platform

Synology

Platform version. In the case of Linux, please enter the Linux distribution you are using.

DSM 7.2.2-72806 Update 3 (INTEL Celeron J4025)

Steps

  1. Download GeminiLake MEGA-cmd version 2.1.1 package from: https://mega.nz/folder/ogBQnbKa#CoRlU5uarTf4XpY3TbPELQ/folder/9lJiCJzI
  2. Install the package as 3rd party package through the Package Center
  3. Access the NAS shell using SSH from my PC (using putty)
  4. Running "sudo mega-cmd" and logging in
  5. Setting up a new sync "sync /path/to/local/folder /folder/in/mega"
    After failing to activate the sync using root, I set up mega-cmd on an administrator account and tried again, same result.
    Note:
    An older version of the files (exact folder structure) was already in my MEGA account, since I had an old backup using a container that stopped working a while ago.

Expected behavior

I would expect sync to work, and maybe notify me if there are conflicts or anything that prevent it from failing.

Actual behavior

The sync starts running, comparing the folders, but then halts with a message: "Unable to add filesystem watch".
In another attempt I manages to get some sync issues about inaccessible folders, nothing significant, but every enda with that filesystem watch error.
