[Plugin] rclone

Featured Replies

I have a simular Problem....

 

I've been trying to get the plugin to work for quite some time. I have linked both a Dropbox and a GDrive account. Through the Rclone web GUI, I can access both accounts and delete data, etc. I can also access the mounted folders and delete data via the Unraid web interface. However, on my network (in my case, a Windows 11 PC), I can access the shared folders, but I can't delete or install files. "Empty" folders or text files can be created, but I still get errors. I've read several similar reports online, suggesting it has something to do with the SAMBA share, but none of the solutions I've tried have worked for me. Currently, I am using the following commands.

 

mkdir -p /mnt/user/Clouds/Dropbox
mkdir -p /mnt/user/Clouds/GDrive

 

rclone mount --max-read-ahead 1024k --allow-other --vfs-cache-mode full --umask 000 --uid 99 --gid 100 Dropbox: /mnt/user/Clouds/Dropbox &
rclone mount --max-read-ahead 1024k --allow-other --vfs-cache-mode full --umask 000 --uid 99 --gid 100 GDrive: /mnt/user/Clouds/GDrive &

 

[GDrive]
type = drive
scope = drive
token = {XXXXXXX}
team_drive =

 

[Dropbox]
type = dropbox
token = {XXXXXX}

 

The share is now being configured in a very standard way through the Unraid web GUI. In the parent folder (Clouds), I can actually perform actions correctly over the network.

Sorry if this has been asked and answered, I swear I've already searched the thread.

How do you set the username and password for the WebUI?

If anybody else who has this problem can confirm it as a fix I'm happy to implement it for everybody 

frustratingly - my server refused to boot today - it was hanging on the rclone plugin install - so I landed here and nuked the rclone plugin folder and rebooted - and it worked - where is the plugin install script so that I can modify it for the 10 second wait to see if that works for repeated reboots?

 

EDIT: so after deleting the plugin folder and then rebooting (restoring my config etc) I had no issues - dunno what the issue was

I have tried to install or use the rclone plug-in and also docker a few times over the past few years and keep having problems (such as directly above) and I go back to using rclone through the NerdPack plugin. 

Here's a way to get rclone that has worked well for me :

I am having an issue where my /mnt folder becomes inaccessible/unresponsive which means everything that needs to access files/configs just does not work anymore. I am pretty sure this is rclone that is causing it as after 4 days without rclone mounted it did not crash. More information about my issue is here;

 

/mnt becomes inaccessible after 12-14 hours - General Support - Unraid

 

This thread includes all of the commands being run, aswel as some more information in general about my issue.

 

Really frustating as rclone is a part of my media server and without it, its not really a media server anymore.

Update, after updating to Unraid 7.0+, NerdTools is no longer supported.

Here is another way to get rclone (and almost anything else that was previously in NerdTools) installed:

I will need to recheck this. If it was installed in v6 before moving to v7. I have tested that plugin without issue.

The only noticeable change comes with the rclone web ui server failure from time to time for the admin web page if you don't have a config.

I would have you check your dns settings. Especial if using tail scale...

Witch rclone are you using?

I assume Waseh given this is his support thread.

as this appears to still be working...

As I usually call rclone via user script and not setup the config...

How do you set the username and password for the WebUI?

You should try to edit the config file on the flash drive:

/boot/config/plugins/rclone/settings.cfg

 

Instead

WEBUI_START_PARAMS=--rc-no-auth --rc-serve

try

WEBUI_START_PARAMS=--rc-user NAME --rc-pass PASS --rc-serve

 

How do we connect to service to get the token? I am setting up for Google Drive, but it shows:

Thanks! I downloaded the rclone locally on my laptop, and then ran `rclone authorize "drive"`, which is so much easier to get it working..

Random question here.

 

Anyone know what would cause this?

 

image.thumb.png.e90af9b5e8d2b56f92fa97729961a507.png

 

The remote is mounted at ..../zurg so I dont see a problem with the mount....but my unRAID logs is looping this every second?!?  Not sure what the heck is going on.  Any help would be appreciated.

 

permission issue on a read or write. the getxattr is a attribute read issue to the /mnt/user/zurg....

you may need to run a chmod 777 -R * and chown nobody:users -R * to that directory to fix file acces permissions.

/mnt/user is reserved for Unraid, you can install the UD plugin and use the /mnt/addons mount point

WebUI will not start/run

 

I have successfully installed and setup remote via rclone cli. However the webui interface does not work for me.

The OPEN WEBUI button wont open any page other than unraid main.

Upon enabling WEBUI I get this message. Zrzutekranu2025-05-18084909.thumb.jpg.f1aca7ef96c4a83eec67a135bb5512df.jpg

I set up this container on my Unraid server to back up to Backblaze B2. Everything is running smoothly. However, I keep getting charged extra (like another $10 USD per month) on top of my storage costs for something called "api list file names called" under "Class C Transactions". Did I set something up incorrectly?

2.5 mil file name calls seems excessive.

When I try to do an upload to google drive, it says "Listed: 0" and goes through thousands of files but never ever ends.

It never used to do this, and my upload command has not changed. Can anyone help me with this? Atm i cannot upload to google drive because of it

updated to unraind 7.2, and the rclone setting page show absurdly large installed version.

The version number will keep on increasing over time. Removed and reinstall doesn't correct it.

I came here to say the exact same thing.
I can provide logs if needed.

I’ve had the same problem since updating to Unraid 7.2. Unfortunately, Waseh was last online on April 1st, so I don’t think we’ll get an update anytime soon.

I tried using the official Docker container from rclone, and I managed to get it working. When there are no errors, the container stops automatically after finishing the sync run, so you get the same behavior as with the plugin.

Here’s an example User Script to start and stop the (pre-configured) container:

set -euo pipefail
CONTAINER="rclone"
docker stop "$CONTAINER" >/dev/null 2>&1 || true

echo "[${SECONDS}s] Starting rclone container..."
docker start "$CONTAINER" >/dev/null
docker wait "$CONTAINER" >/dev/null
echo "[${SECONDS}s] rclone job finished."

Edited by RedOrange

OTOH, I can't think of anything in 7.2 that would cause this plugin to have that behaviour.

FWIW, rclone IS included in 7.2 (not sure when it came to be included though)

Yes. This is the way.
I've been using Rclone through User Scripts successfully since Geek Tools stopped being maintained.
Just use the normal Rclone commands to use it.
