Using dat with the http option has problems with syncing (deletion)

Open beingalink opened this issue 8 years ago • 5 comments

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Add a folder on the master
  2. Visit the folder in the browser and open one or more files in the browser (index.html or pdf files)
  3. Delete the folder in master
  4. The metadata syncs correctly and the folder is removed in the browser view but it's still there in the file system of the client's host (containing the files that were opened in the browser)

This problem doesn't seem to occur anymore. Don't know when it got fixed though.

OK, I just stumbled across this issue again. Seems like it's still there.

@beingalink are you on Linux or OSX?

@creationix The server is on linux (centos 7) and the client on os x.

Nevermind, I misunderstood the question. I've seen a case where FS changes aren't detected at all and never get into the source dat. This seems worse on linux.
