Hi,
Something happened, but I canāt find out what. The result is that Iām stuck with a non-responding Nextcloud Desktop app and at the same time having trouble with opening Windows file Explorer.
The details of my installation:
Windows 10 Pro | version 22H2 | Build 19045.2604 | Dutch
Nextcloud | File version 3.7.4.45221 | Product version 3.7.4.20230309 | installed on Mar. 9th 2023
Nextcloud server | 25.0.4.1 | See https://scan.nextcloud.com/results/1785afe7-7a10-4d8e-a737-29b475a49294
Observations:
After starting my Windows PC the tray icon for Nextcloud keeps showing Syncing Status
Opening file explorer by clicking on its icon is not working unless I kill the Nextcloud process with the Task Manager.
Deeper dive:
Running Get-Content %APPDATA%\Nextcloud\Documents_sync.log -Wait
in PowerShell and then restarting Nextcloud App gives some indication:
#=#=#=# Syncrun started 2023-03-15T14:15:22Z
#=#=#=#=# Propagation starts 2023-03-15T14:15:24Z (last step: 1857 msec, total: 1857 msec)
After this nothing happens and no other sync logs are made.
Looking at nextcloud.log
I see following remarkable log-lines:

Further, in the log-file I see a lot of lines like:
2023-03-15 15:28:22:447 [ warning default C:\Users\sysadmin\AppData\Local\Temp\2\windows-14239\client-building\desktop\src\csync\csync_exclude.cpp:445 ]: System exclude list file could not be read: "C:/Users/[USER]/Documents/[FURTHER_PATH]/.sync-exclude.lst"
Little step forward : got a Green Synced status icon for a moment. This was probably because I āsyncedā a folder manually by comparing files in explorer with files on my nextcloud web interface. Maybe I have to do this manually for every file missing. When done, Iāll post an update.
Any ideas on how to investigate the cause?
Solved: downgraded to Deskytop Client 3.6.6
