Live sync won't start about obsidian-livesync HOT 27 CLOSED

Sorry for my absence from the main feature! And, also apologise for your inconvenience.
However, in my environment, LiveSync seems to get started after the checkup correctly. Would you mind if I ask you to check and paste the log, please? If started once, replication closed might be shown. If not started totally, it may not be mentioned about replication.

At version 0.22.17, The start timing of start-up synchronisation, including LiveSync, has been moved after the check-up, to prevent unexpected file corruption (especially being wiped out). I think that it could have affected this. Therefore, I know you have already tried, but could you please wait a little bit once, and check the log? The log can be shown from the command palette or archive box icon on the ribbon.

I had to downgrade to 0.22.16 to get live sync to work again.

I am also having this issue. I'm running Obsidian v1.5.12 on Windows 11 and I was using obsidian-livesync v0.22.19. I reverted to 0.22.16 and it seems to have resolved the issue after some fiddling with the sync mode.

from obsidian-livesync.

Just in case - issue is not yet solved in 0.23.1

from obsidian-livesync.

I am very happy to hear that your livesync has got be available again!
Thank you so much for your cooperation in investigating.

it's always showing 3 files in "⏳ Working read storage processes".

This is quite worrying. However, we cannot check what file is actually pending or processing now... Toggling the Data Compression toggle would cause a database replication pause and restart with a new configuration. At this time, the process should be forced flushing. So, possibly it is being resolved unintentionally.

I will investigate it again! Thank you so much for your patience and reporting!

Hello. Seems, that issue was not addressed in release 0.23.4. May I ask - how high priority has this issue?

from obsidian-livesync.

Sorry, I do not actually know what has been going on yet. It is working just fine in my environment...

Would you mind sharing a configuration report and log? Report can be issued by the Make report button on the Hatch pane.
And, a log can be copied from the log pane; it can be opened by the archive box button or the Show log command.

Hello.
Here is the information You asked

Problem is present only wile running with hidden file sync

from obsidian-livesync.

I can confirm, that issues is fixed in 0.23.7. Thank you very much!

from obsidian-livesync.

I really appreciate all your patience and contributions! So happy to hear that the problem has been fixed.

Configuration mismatching between the clients has been detected. This can be harmful or extra capacity consumption. We have to make these value unified.

This has been shown by the new feature. We can disable this message in the Do not check configuration mismatch before replication toggle in the Hatch pane.
However, the dialogue that we can unify the configuration will be shown at the replication, and we can do so.

from obsidian-livesync.

@vrtmrz today the 'configuration mismatch' message started popping up on my devices too. The description seems rather scary yet no solution is offered. It would be great to know what it means and how to fix it.

from obsidian-livesync.

Try clicking "replicate" on ribbon. You will be prompted to unify configuration.

This is not straight forward, and window should pop up automatically in my opinion

from obsidian-livesync.

I can confirm this.

Once updated to 0.22.19 syncing does not work at all between the devices. I also moved back to 0.22.16 and it started working again.

I also tried 0.22.19 on my android phone and 0.22.16 on the clients. The result was that neither the changes on the phone were shown on other devives nor changes on another client were visible on the phone. Once I reverted to 0.22.16 it started working again.

from obsidian-livesync.

Well - I went back to 0.22.16 as well, works good now again

from obsidian-livesync.

Hej. Sorry for confusion, it actually works now, but there was a catch.
I had to go to plugin settings and apply "livesync" preset again, after that it started to work immediately and works after Obsidian starts as well.
Works on Windows and Android, will check my Linux laptop later and let You know if any issues there.

Thank You for Your great work! I am happy, that You've made this plugin!

Hi,

I also did a quick test with two devices now. One is set to live sync while other is set to on events (tablet) and from what I can see the sync is working fine again with the latest released version.

from obsidian-livesync.

Hello, again. I'd like to come back to this. After couple of days it's actually back where it was - sync does not start properly. When i start Obsidian - it's always showing 3 files in "⏳ Working read storage processes". Sometimes, after like 5 minutes - sync starts, sometime not.

Last record in verbose log: "AM->Synchronizing hidden files done"

Rechecking "Data compression" checkbox usually fixes the problem, but it has to be done every Obsidian start up.

from obsidian-livesync.

Hello,
I can also confirm, that this is now happening for me as well. Once started freshly sync is paused and I see the "Working read storage processes" hourglass. I then have to toggle the sync settings to make it sync again, BUT the hourglass stays in this case.

from obsidian-livesync.

Hello,

tested this some more and I think it is related to the hidden file sync. If I turn it off, it works and I do not see the hourglass. Once I turn it on the hourglass shows up.

from obsidian-livesync.

Yap - that's hidden file sync that is causing an issue. So - I'm back to version 16. Let me know if I can help You searching for root cause of the issue.

from obsidian-livesync.

I have tried reinstalling livesync from scratch (did not reinstall database itself though) - same behavior, live sync does not start automatically after Obsidian startup.

from obsidian-livesync.

It works as long as hidden file sync is disabled. Hidden file sync works up to version 0.22.16.

Yap. Perhaps it's just a few people using hideen file sync, does not seem like a big issue for others.

from obsidian-livesync.

I can confirm the same. Thanks so much.

I was too quick to report it closed, sorry about that.
It worked with Windows + Android until i've upgraded my Linux device. Now - non of the device start live sync, and i get this error on every device:

5/10/2024, 3:00:31 PM->Configuration mismatching between the clients has been detected. This can be harmful or extra capacity consumption. We have to make these value unified.

Going back to 0.22.16

Okay, this time it was something on my side. I've reinstalled the whole CouchDB and plugin on every workstation. Seems to work now!

from obsidian-livesync.

How to unify configuration? And please, pardon me, but who's "we"?

I general - I've noticed the it takes more tyme for sync to start after Obsidian launches. It takes around 1 minute for me which is much longer than before.
