Local sync error (EPERM)

Originally posted by kaibrune May 12, 2022 Hi there, I wanted to use the local file as a sync option but no matter which location is selected I'll get the error:

Unknown Upload Errror (Settings correct?): Error: Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, open '/User/Documents/test.json'

I guess this is to some permission issues (regarding macOS Catalina), but I don't know how to grand access. Thank you for your help and the great app!

Thank you very much for opening up this issue! I am currently a bit overwhelmed by the many requests that arrive each week, so please forgive me, if I fail to respond personally. I am still very likely to at least skim read your request and I'll probably try to fix all (real) bugs if possible and I will likely review every single PR being made (please, give me a heads up if you intent to do so) and I will try to work on popular requests (please upvote via thumbs up on the original issue) whenever possible, but trying to respond to every single issue over the last years has been kind of draining and I need to adjust my approach for this project to remain fun for me and to make any progress with actually coding new stuff. Thanks for your understanding!

Hi there!

You can grant access via:

sudo chmod 777 /User/Documents/test.json        

Executed from a terminal.

In my MacOS Monterey it is fixed by chmod 777 but this is not suitable if you have this file stored in a cloud synced folder, due to constantly have the privileges changed by the cloud sync agent to 700. So the files ends up rw only by me as owner and despite the fact that the app is ran by the same user and the App is registered in the settings to have full disk access, it needs 777. This needs a more permanent solution.
