[SOLVED]Error syncing library: "Failed to add download task: Incorrect password"

Seafile Client

Hello together,

today I noticed a problem syncing a library. Client says:

Failed to add download task: Incorrect password

The only thing I could find was in Seafile client applet.log:

Why the client tries to open https://my-server.ddns.net/seafile/f/f8e86c1c4ea6458e9c71/?

Client: Linux Debian9 6.1.8
Server: seafile-server_6.2.5_x86-64.tar.gz

Any ideas?

It appears to be trying to open a library, and possibly sync. However, it can’t. Is the library encrypted by any chance?

Thank you for your help!

It was not a library but a share to a markdown file. Now syncing libraries works again after waiting some hours.

I can vaguely imagine, what happened: I’m running Seafile not in root directory, so my-server.ddns.net/seafile/. I redirect my-server.ddns.net to this markdown share link yesterday (I’m used to use markdown files as very simple CMS providing web tutorials). Maybe the client partially connects to the root directory in some way even if you set an account with Seafile running not in a root directory and was redirected to a URL which does not exist anymore (because I’ve deleted the share link)… anyway, the recent logs does not show the error anymore.

Good to know it’s working again.
