[Help] S3 task creation fails [SOLVED]

[magnus4ever]

So after finally having some successfull Cloud BAckups using a S3 compatible Storage from a german Provider (Hetzner) Cloudsync shows its ugly face again and i dont know why....

I have three Shared Folders to back up, Path is always \Volume2\"Share". This is my source folder.
Destination Folder is \Bucketname\"Share".

Shares have easy names: "Dokumente", "Media", "Backup".
Creating a task for the first two shares worked like a charm, but after the second one took like a week to upload i decided to create the final one after finishing the other two. Unfortunately, Cloudsync terminates the creation every time with the error below,

Code: Select all

Info,2025-03-03 22:33:50,CB_Backups,TNAS,Sync task (CB_Backups) creation failed (Error: ErrLocalPathAlreadyExists))

This doesn't make any sense to me since : of course the local folder already exists because this is my source folder.

Please note the content of the prompt, which indicates that your /Nolume2/Backup has already been selected by another task as a synchronization directory. This does not mean that the folder no longer exists.

To ensure the integrity and accuracy of synchronized data, according to the current application rules, it is not supported to select the same directory or folders within it repeatedly to create new synchronization tasks. /Nolume2/Backup has already been chosen by another task for synchronization. If you need to proceed with the synchronization task you desire, you must first delete the task that is using the /Nolume2/Backup directory.

Thanks for pointing this out, i misinterpreted the prompt. Working fine now.

Maybe as a suggestion for the future: if the prompt would say "Path already used in another sync task", I guess it would be more clear what the underlying issue is.

Hi magnus4ever, I hope you ate doing well.
Could you give me any direction about how you did configure Cloudsync to work with a S3 compatible storage ? I'm trying to do it (not the same service though).
Thank you for your help
