Solved [13.1-BETA] Rclone does not mount remote webdav folder

freezr

Hi folks,

I am not sure if this is a bug related with RCLONE or 13.1-BETA, but the former doesn't mount the webdav resouces locally anymore.

So far I uninstalled and reinstalled RCLONE and redone the procedure a bunch of time, but I could not mount this remote resource.

This command has always worked before upgrading to 13.1-BETA:
rclone mount dav: /mnt/drive --vfs-cache-mode writes --daemon

Where dav: is the local config file:
Code: 
[dav]
type = webdav
url = https://dav.mailbox.org/servlet/webdav.infostore/
vendor = other
user = freezr@mailbox.org
pass = wjnqenSDASJDNewdqow2312nnJljNDQWwqw2

And this is the output:
Code: 
2022/03/14 02:51:23 DEBUG : rclone: Version "v1.57.0-DEV" starting with parameters ["rclone" "mount" "dav:" "/mnt/drive" "--vfs-cache-mode" "writes" "--daemon" "-vv"]
2022/03/14 02:51:23 DEBUG : Creating backend with remote "dav:"
2022/03/14 02:51:23 DEBUG : Using config file from "/home/freezr/.config/rclone/rclone.conf"
2022/03/14 02:51:23 DEBUG : found headers:

But the local folder is empty, hence the connection has not been established however running this other command:
rclone lsd dav:
Code: 
          -1 2019-02-05 01:04:53        -1 Public infostore
          -1 2021-07-14 21:19:38        -1 Trash
          -1 2019-02-05 01:04:53        -1 Userstore

The webdav resource is properly connected therefore I assume the issue is between Rclone and FreeBSD.

Code: 
rclone --version                           
rclone v1.57.0-DEV

Actually it requires FUSE but it seems to work properly since I was able to mount the webdav resource with Thunar (through FUSE), the problem is I need access to this resource with a Terminal and when webdav is mounted through Thunar I can't.

I think it is a bug and if I can isolate and reproduce it I can open a bug report.
 
The other system has the same issue, I need to open a bur report since having this working is extremely important to me.

Should it be under:

Report an update or defect to a port

or under

Report an issue with the base system

???

I understand that „doesn’t ... anymore“ means, that it did work for you in the past. Please can you elaborate a little bit what have changed since.

In case it was a system update, for example from 13.0-RELEASE to 13.1-BETA1, then report an issue with the base system.

Otherwise report a defect with the port.
 
Yesterday night I did a fresh install on a bhyve VM (never done, pretty cool!) and I was unable to mount the webdav resource, so definitely is a bug of the package!
 
I am trying to create a better report, this is the setup while working properly:

Code: 
uname -a                                                                       5.045s 01:04

This is when is launched the connection:

Code: 
 rclone mount dav: /mnt/drive/ --vfs-cache-mode writes --daemon -vv
2022/03/17 01:04:17 DEBUG : rclone: Version "v1.57.0-DEV" starting with parameters ["rclone" "mount" "dav:" "/mnt/drive/" "--vfs-cache-mode" "writes" "--daemon" "-vv"]

It is properly mounted:

Code: 
ls /mnt/drive/                                                                        01:05

Last info:

Code:

Although the output is practically the same it can't mount the remote resource:

The remote folder hasn't been mounted:

Code: 
ls /mnt/drive/

🤷‍♂️
 
Looks like this issue hasn't been solved with 13.1 and rclone 1.58.1.

Also I totally forgot about this issue since the capsule is down and I didn't have time to write anything.
I am going to ask before to the RCLONE maybe is enough to have this fixed...

🤷‍♂️
 
First make sure you are updated to the full 13.1-RELEASE. The beta releases are expired.
 
It is...

However on a new fresh install I remade the same steps of this guide:

https://blog.socruel.nu/freebsd/mount-webdav-with-rclone-on-freebsd.html

And now I got these other errors:

I think I have the fuse components installed e set up properly:

Code: 
$ cat /etc/rc.conf | grep fuse
kld_list="fusefs fuse"
$ cat /etc/sysctl.conf | grep mount
vfs.usermount="1"

This is the classic thing that you set up once and forget till something goes wrong...
 
the Boot process is complaining about the module fuse missing...

And as a matter of fact you can't load it:

Code: 
$ doas kldload fuse.ko
kldload: can't load fuse.ko: No such file or directory
$ doas kldload fuse
kldload: can't load fuse: No such file or directory

Only fusefs is loaded:

Code: 
freezr ) kldstat
Id Refs Address                Size Name
 1   35 0xffffffff80200000  1f30590 kernel
[...]
8    1 0xffffffff82b52000    11cd8 fusefs.ko
[...]

I am not aware if fuse.ko has been deprecated in favor of fusefs.ko.
 
I think it can be useful:
pkg install gmake

git clone https://github.com/rclone/rclone.git
cd rclone/
gmake GOTAGS=cmount

The issue has been actually spotted, and it belongs to the fuse module.

Using the cmount flag it allows Rclone to:

works around as it uses a different Go->FUSE binding which uses libfuse directly.

Did it work? If so can you make a note on the github issue please? rclone does not mount on freebsd-14-current · Issue #5843 · rclone/rclone · GitHub I think the ultimate cause is fuse lib is broken on recent FreeBSD · Issue #280 · bazil/fuse · GitHub which using cmount works around as it uses...

Yes it is.
It is more or less what I did too.

At least now it is working again!

A fix might be adding the cmount option available in the ports through the make config command. 🤔
