[windows] PermissionError - failed to sync project (unhandled exception) with Dropbox
Hello, I'm getting the error as seen in the title. Reporting it so you can create an error handler for it. The cause of the error might be that I'm working from Dropbox - I'm not 100% sure. See the details below.

Indeed, it is not a good idea to have Mergin projects stored within Dropbox folder, because the sync from Dropbox interferes with the sync in Mergin, causing problems like you got. Or try pausing Dropbox sync while you sync data with Mergin. Others have got similar errors (e.g. #266).
I just starting experiencing this issue today with two of my projects that have been stored in OneDrive since April. I didn't realize this could cause problems and I have been syncing almost daily (sometimes pausing OneDrive syncing but not always). Something must have changed with Mergin this week I assume. The projects are just stored in OneDrive to increase redundancy of backups so I can move them into a regular folder).
The sync will not complete now even when I pause OneDrive syncing beforehand. I will move them out of OneDrive just to remove this variable from the equation.
@rjwillson you are getting a different issue though, right? (The one reported in #279 ?) It could be that OneDrive is doing sync differently from Dropbox and the problem you are experiencing is due to the upgrade of the mergin plugin (2021.4), not due to OneDrive...
yes, that's correct as I am still experiencing the issue (The one reported in #279) even with the project moved out of OneDrive. So OneDrive is not the culprit in my case.
hi, i seem top have the same problem due to an unhandled exception:
here is the most recent log:

@zweers it looks like the problem you are experiencing is actually the one reported in #279

@LAE-F what version of the Mergin plugin are you using? If it is 2021.4, then please upgrade to 2021.4.1 where the problem should be fixed already...
@LAE-F could you please send the diagnostic log from the plugin? Please see https://help.cloudmergin.com/plugin-logs
Also, it would be useful if you could describe what you are doing before sync. Does it fail every time, or only sometimes?
This is actually the first time it is failing to sync. I don't know if its because i'm using a GeoPackage Layer. Whenever i save my work as a shapefile, it syncs on the first try.
But when using shapefiles, you do not get the automatic merging of changes from multiple devices, that is only supported for GeoPackages. Shapefiles are handled just like any other binary files (like pictures).
Oh interesting. It has worked now, but some of the layers aren't showing on my other devices .
