Hi,
I installed Rclone on a linux machine (let's call it PC A), then I uploaded a folder using the Rclone's encryption features to google drive. I can list and mount the folder on google drive to a local folder on the same pc (A) when I want to restore some files via the command:
rclone mount crypt: /home/tom/point/
Everything works fine and I'm happy with that.
Now, I'm trying to restore/recover my encrypted files on Google Drive on another linux machine (Ubuntu server 20.04 lts, let's call it PC B), in order to test if I still can get acccess to my files, in case everything goes wrong with the other machine (A). So, I first installed rclone on the new machine (PC B), then I copied the orginal rclone.conf file into /home/john/.config/rclone.
It seems to be working since I can list the files stored on the cloud if I run via a putty ssh session:
rclone ls crypt:googlecry
But, if I try to mount it on a local folder of PC B:
rclone mount crypt: /home/john/googledrive/
nothing seems to be happening. By running a new root terminal from the web GUI (PC B is a ubuntu headless server) I got this:
ls: cannot access 'googledrive': Permission denied
I then stop the mount via ctl c and see this error message:
^C2023/04/06 17:59:05 ERROR : /home/john/googledrive/: Unmounted rclone mount
I am missing something here probably. Maybe it's just that I don't know how to see them but there are there already. It was much easier to mount and save them on a linux pc with GUI. Could help figure it out please?
Thanks
Iām curious why you are trying to mount your remote if you just want to copy the files from it. Why not just use copy or sync?
Try to add -vv to your rclone command to see more details of what is happening.
