fix: Error but not crash while unmount if symlink is missing

Open buhtz opened this issue 1 month ago • 1 comments

While unmounting catch FileNotFoundException about missing symlink while unmounting and just log it as error.

It is a workaround to ease the burden with a still unknown bug introduced after 1.5.6 release. While unmounting (in SSH) symlink is deleted several times causing FileNotFoundException.

Diagnosis of the real problem was not successful. The code is complex, smelly and hard to debug. Further investigation and refactoring is planed.

Close #2296

I'll wait for response from Samuel (second try) before merging anything.

Still have no response from him. When it is time for the next release I think I'll remove/disable the --status feature until we find a solution.
