Had to sync three times to be successful: End of change request not reached

[myartsev]

A fresh install of acd_cli took me three tries to sync before it was successful, looks like each sync builds up on the data from the previous try.

My Amazon Drive is ~1.4TB.

anijap@foo:~$ acd_cli sync

Yeah, I'm relatively new and I'm not sure why this is, but I had the same issue. Syncing is never marked successful, but if you do it a few times it'll gradually download all the data.

I believe [after reading other threads] that the issue is that there are too many files/folders in a folder/tree and the sync has issue adding them all to the DB.

just had this issue recently. Once you reach a certain point there will be too many files for sync so instead use psync -r /folder. i just ran it on the root folder and waited a while for it to complete.

Oh seriously? ``acd_cli psync -r`` is a thing? I didn't know. Maybe document that on the basic guide so users don't panic and think it's not syncing correctly.
