Is device “G91S” your Android phone?
Unless there are two difference devices labeled as temp-OptiPlex-7010
, one issue I see is that according to your screenshots of Syncthing-GTK, all of your configured sync folders are being shared with device temp-OptiPlex-7010
. However, that device is also the one the screenshots were taken from. Or in other words, isn’t /home/mel/Sync
already on device temp-OptiPlex-7010
?
/home/mel/Sync/German/Berlin Reise -- 2023
is shared twice, which is fine (the two folder IDs are unique), but you’re receiving changes from both device G91S
and Schmetterling
. Device G91S
knows the folder ID as mdkr4-sjfbx
while device Schmetterling
knows it as pldr7-8sxcx
, so as far as those two devices are concerned, they’re writing to different folders and potentially causing conflicts. Instead, if the goal is to prevent changes from being synced from temp-OptiPlex-7010
back to Schmetterling
, share mdkr4-sjfbx
with Schmetterling
and set the folder type to “Send Only” on Schmetterling
.
As for the error “.stwritetest: syncing: finishing: pull: no such file”, the official Syncthing Android app creates the temporary file to test that it has enough permission to write to a chosen storage location. See the following earlier post for additional details: “syncing: pull: no such file”, this time on a Syncthing file
(If the “Introducer” setting on Schmetterling
was enabled on purpose, I recommend disabling it until you’re much more comfortable working with Syncthing. Automatically pushing devices and folders to other devices requires extra care to manage properly.)
