    Package UpdatesP
    [1.33.9] Update syncthing to 2.0.8 Full Changelog Database backend switched from LevelDB to SQLite. There is a migration on first launch which can be lengthy for larger setups. The new database is easier to understand and maintain and, hopefully, less buggy. The logging format has changed to use structured log entries (a message plus several key-value pairs). Additionally, we can now control the log level per package, and a new log level WARNING has been inserted between INFO and ERROR (which was previously known as WARNING...). The INFO level has become more verbose, indicating the sync actions taken by Syncthing. A new command line flag --log-level sets the default log level for all packages, and the STTRACE environment variable and GUI has been updated to set log levels per package. The --verbose and --logflags command line options have been removed and will be ignored if given. Deleted items are no longer kept forever in the database, instead they are forgotten after fifteen months. If your use case require deletes to take effect after more than a fifteen month delay, set the --db-delete-retention-interval command line option or corresponding environment variable to zero, or a longer time interval of your choosing. Modernised command line options parsing. Old single-dash long options are no longer supported, e.g. -home must be given as --home. Some options have been renamed, others have become subcommands. All serve options are now also accepted as environment variables. See syncthing --help and syncthing serve --help for details. Rolling hash detection of shifted data is no longer supported as this effectively never helped. Instead, scanning and syncing is faster and more efficient without it. A "default folder" is no longer created on first startup. Multiple connections are now used by default between v2 devices. The new default value is to use three connections: one for index metadata and two for data exchange. The following platforms unfortunately no longer get prebuilt binaries for download at syncthing.net and on GitHub, due to complexities related to cross compilation with SQLite: The handling of conflict resolution involving deleted files has changed. A delete can now be the winning outcome of conflict resolution, resulting in the deleted file being moved to a conflict copy. fix(sqlite): less impactful periodic garbage collection by @calmh in #10374 fix(sqlite): explicitly set temporary directory location (fixes #10368) by @calmh in #10376

    Maybe the syncthing app doesn't re-test permission immediately? I went back to the folder, and the error was gone, syncthing says its "up to date" seems to have created its files ok. Nothing got touched in the inbetween time. But its working now, so I'm happy with that result. Thanks!

    @james I've had multiple syncthings running on a cloudron server for a few years now without issues. Not sure if this is because the issue was resolved upstream, or if changing the default port for the initial handshake between devices has done the trick.

    I think that information is the same across apps . The first part is here - https://docs.cloudron.io/volumes/#add . The second part should be added ( cc @girish)

    No, syncthing is made to synchronise files between instances of syncthing. While rclone is ? primarily) an utility to copy files between different backends (of one which could be a local directory).

    Just wanted to add a note that Syncthing really only has 1 user. All LDAP authenticated users manage the same set of folders. I have adjusted the postinstall accordingly.

    So Cloudron has a package version and an upstream version. In this case the package version is 1.22.0 while the upstream version is 1.23.0. So all fine, however the patch release will be out soon. Not sure why we haven't gotten a notification about this, so thanks for the heads up here.

    @girish I followed the example provided at https://docs.cloudron.io/volumes/#sharing and did a 'touch ./test-file' From what I can see, the directory does appear to have write permissions. [image: 1668070120922-screen-shot-2022-11-10-at-12.48.07-am.png]

    @girish Thank you, this did the trick. In my case, I have Ubuntu 20.04 on a kvm inside my host, so I had to change the inotify watch limit for the "inner host". The warning message went away a few minutes after that.

    @RoundHouse1924 Looks like I left the update hanging. Usually, I get a notification long before the release binaries are ready, so I have to 'wait' before making a package. I forgot to check back on this..... Making a new package.
