Synching-bar : how to install?

I have installed synching-bar v0.0.7 and i got following message :smile:

OUT: [ZQ52O] 16:35:16 INFO: syncthing v0.11.6 (go1.4.2 darwin-amd64 default) unknown-user@syncthing-builder 2015-05-23 23:58:46 UTC OUT: [ZQ52O] 16:35:16 INFO: My ID: ZQ52O2X-FXVG3S7-USHSO5Y-Z7IMHMS-Y4HH3A7-QNNKWF4-UTPJTW7-RTXM3A5 OUT: [ZQ52O] 16:35:16 INFO: Archiving a copy of old config file format OUT: [ZQ52O] 16:35:16 INFO: Database block cache capacity 32768 KiB OUT: [ZQ52O] 16:35:16 FATAL: Cannot open database: resource temporarily unavailable - Is another copy of Syncthing already running?

Configuration : Sycthing V0.11.21, HOME/Applications/syncthing, OS X 10.10.5 (14F27) Any idea ?

Is another copy of Syncthing running?

Yes Syncthing V0.11.21 is actually running and I can use Web GUI

You cannot have two instances of Syncthing running at once. Syncthing-bar is trying to run a Syncthing instance and is failing, because one is running already. Stop the one that’s currently running, then start Syncthing-bar again.

Well, this morning, after restarting my MBA, everything is OK, see :

I don’t know why (maybe automatic upgrade to V0.11.22?) but it’s cool. Thanks.

I told you why: previously you had a version already running, and Syncthing-bar tried to run another version on top of it. This caused it to fail with the message it displayed.

When you restarted, that stopped the first version from running.

The restart accomplished the “Stop the one that’s currently running” part.
