iwohey, when i execute u1sync commands the tool seems to either take forever (no sign of completing) with no output, or do nothing22:07
iwodoes anyone know why this might be?22:07
iwois it using a really slow host by default? (is there an alternative host i can use?)22:08
iwoi'm trying to run a headless ubuntu one set-up on my home file server22:14
iwoas per http://per.liedman.net/2011/01/22/using-ubuntu-one-for-backup-on-a-headless-server/22:14
karniiwo: Hiya. Please drop by Mon-Fri, a little earlier than now. You should then meet much more people here that will be able to help.22:15
duanedesigniwo: you might check out sil's comments on that post. He mentions a better way to get the oauth token22:21
duanedesignhmmm, there appears to be something misshing from those steps22:23
iwokarni: okay, will do22:41
iwoduanedesign: i have the oauth token and secret (got from my passwords as described in the blog)22:42
iwoduanedesign: thank you! after using Roman Yepishev's script to generate a new token, u1sync has started to work!22:53
iwocheers :)22:53
duanedesigniwo: great22:53
duanedesigniwo: good to hear22:53
iwohmm, maybe not22:55
iwomy init command was successful, but now i can't seem to do diffs or sync successfully22:55
iwofeels like maybe my problems are simply down to a slow, intermittent server connection22:56
duanedesignhmm, it could be.22:57
duanedesignwe were having some intermittent connection issues. We were adding some servers and other steps to deal with the increase in traffic that was causing these issues22:58
duanedesigniwo: did your setup create a syncdaemon.log anywere22:58
duanedesign~/.cache/ubuntuone/log/syncdaemon.log    is the default location22:59
iwono, unfortunately no syncdaemon.log on my system anywhere23:01
iwothe only log file i have is: ~/.cache/ubuntuone/log/u1sync.log23:01
iwobut it's 0 bytes :(23:01
iwoi'm trying to run a headless instance by invoking u1sync (only), so no daemons23:03
iwoah yes, one attempt was suddenly successful :D23:05
iwoso my commands (and config) are correct23:05
iwojust connectivity probs then i guess23:05
iwodon't like how u1sync seems to hang when it can't connect :\ i guess i may end up with many hung instances over time :\23:09
dobeyu1sync? you shouldn't use u1sync23:13
iwodobey: do you have an alternative?23:13
dobeyubuntuone-client23:13
iwocan this work in a headless environment?23:14
dobeynot easily or in an official manner, but yes23:14
iwodo you have any kind of guide available?23:15
dobeyi don't. i think rye might have blogged one at some point23:15
iwoso it's also unofficial, do you think it will be more stable (etc) than u1sync?23:17
iwoseems like 90% of my requests using u1sync just hang23:18
iwobut i guess this must be network problems23:18
dobeyit will certainly be more stable than u1sync, which is basically unmaintained, and no longer even included in ubuntu23:18
iwoannoying because it gives no output to show where the problem might be23:18
iwo(i guess i need wireshark)23:18
dobeyi guess you must still be on lucid23:18
iwoyup23:20
iwo(on this server anyway)23:20
iwoi guess i'd need to use the gnome keyring like this:23:22
iwohttp://superuser.com/questions/141036/use-of-gnome-keyring-daemon-without-x23:22
dobeyyou just need a token. you can put the oauth token in ~/.config/ubuntuone/syncdaemon.conf (i forget what secion and keys to use for it though)23:24
dobeyyou will need a dbus session bus running, though23:24
