"lookup of nonexistent device ID"

Hello Syncthing,

Just recently, I’ve started to get this odd error on my redhat install:

[K644V] 07:35:06 INFO: syncthing v0.14.13 "Dysprosium Dragonfly" (go1.7.3 linux-amd64) jenkins@build.syncthing.net 2016-11-29 10:56:02 UTC

Any thoughts on what I can do?

Whats in the panic log?

There is a similar issue on Github:

For that panic, clearing the index seems to be a workaround.

That sounds sensible. How can I clear the index?

Run syncthing -reset or remove the index-... folder in /mnt/home/tellier/.config/syncthing/, while syncthing isn’t running.

Syncthing will then rescan everything on the next start.

If you have unsynced changes, you will get sync conflicts.

Right! I just removed the index file, and that worked. Thanks Weich
