Great, thank you for this new version.

Remove the function of map a library to a network drive

Why did you remove this feature?

Change default block size to 8MB

Why has this been changed?

#3

From our experience, it causes confusing. People want to use network drive feature can use the drive client.

This reduces number of blocks at the server side.

Hello Daniel,

I’ve the problem, that the custom logo is not showing in the desktop client (Windows).

Greetings,

Does this only occur to the new version 6.1.0?

#6

I don’t think so, but I don’t have checked it before. :frowning:

What if a user uses CentOS or Fedora? He can not use seadrive. Please bring the option back or publish RPM binaries.

The Finder icons seem to be missing in this version. Is Finder Sync broken?

Also, my avatars still don’t load, but I am now getting this in the log file:

logs/applet.log:[08/02/17 15:43:05][api] network error for http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/avatars/8/8/2ac5005b0a5a8099895a2534a06f1d/resized/42/e094ee63ca52e4cd90173474238ea2be.png: Connection refused

Mapping a synced library as a network drive only work for Windows. Nothing is changed for Linux.

#11

Finder sync stopped working here already some versions ago, don’t know why. Applet.log shows setDockIconStyle show failure, status code: -50

#12

Any ETA for a RPM binary? It’s needed very much and the lack of it is making me move back to Nextcloud.

#13

hm, but now, 1 month later, I still get this:

Hi Daniel
Just wanted to let you know that icons still look “pixelated” in Windows on a high dpi screen…
