From the bug tracker, I didnāt find a prominent topic. I found some older one with smb as external storage, but not sure why it was closed:
With your version, operating system and type of external storage, you can perhaps search again the bug tracker for more details, or if you can obtain a specific error message somewhere.
Thanks for your answer.
So, it seem to be a normal: i will investigate my side (by checking and analysis logs).
As, under MacOs, some external vfs external folder was available and some other not, I suspect some timeout issue (also, with iOs client, same things: some folder available, some other not ā¦)
You have confirmate me that external storage should work under virtual file system (or Iām wrong ?), itāis enough for me ā¦
I will learn new stuff during this investigation ā¦ it is good for the brain !
Kind regards
I havenāt found obvious hints that it does not work. However, I didnāt try/use/test it myself. VFS on mac was supported much later, there are still a number of issues regarding this feature, so there can be a different issue, or just too few users that it wasnāt spotted prominently enough for me.
I donāt see any issues with Windows client and ālocal external storageā so I would deeper look into
issue finally found: it was some mistake during previous try setting some files on external storage as encrypted: restarting from a fresh install seem solved all problems.
thanks for your comprehension.
After some try, I finally (really) find the issue:
if a subfolder contains a Readme.md file with 0xa0 character in itās content, when, the all folder is not available to iOs client.
How to reproduce:
create a folder ātestā with two subfolder ātest/aā and ātest/bā:
on iOs client, folder test is well displayed and show folder a and folder b.
now put a Readme.md with a 0xA0 character in his content in folder ātest/aā:
now, on iOs client, folder test is showed empty.
Rename the test/a/Readme.md into test/a/Readme_old.md and then, on iOs client, folder test show his two subfolder.
Easy, no ?
