Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/issues/450

Can't use webdav synology server wit floccus

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
With synology webdav server created:

  1. Enter webdav url with port in floccus options
  2. Enter username/password
  3. provide path to write bookmarks.xbel file
  4. Press Sync Now button
    All good! message appears but no bookmarks.xbel is to be found in webdav folder

Expected behavior
When "all good!" message appear when pressing the sync button, an actual sync should take place and bookmarks.xbel should be created.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows 10, OSX Catalina
  • Browser Firefox, Brave, Chrome
  • Browser Version: latest for all
  • Floccus version: 3.5.3
  • Floccus sync method: webdav

I've replaced the actual IP address with --localnasaddress--

Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here.

  1. I can access the remote webdav folders on both Mac OSX Catalina and Windows 10 (with winscp)
  2. I can create files and folders in the floccus specified path through webdav, using the same credentials as in floccus
  3. when browsing the floccus folder on the nas I can see a "#Trash" folder containing several versions of the file "bookmarks.xbel.lock" each 42 bytes in length

Hello @Crisr
Which bookmarks folder did you select for syncing? It appears to be empty.

Hello, this is how I set the folder:
RT0E0W1

and it is indeed empty after sync.

However I think I've soved the issue.
The "Local folder" was set by default to some weird path (Nextcloud@my-ip or something like that.)
I've changed that to /Bookmarks Bar and boom, sync is working properly, bookmarks.xbel appeared in the correct folder.

Anyway, thanks for the great work.

Yes, by default it creates a new folder for you to avoid doing something you don't want. :)
I'm glad it works now.
