[Cloud Sync Tasks] GDrive - can't read dangling shortcut

[LKB]

ElectricEel-24.10.0.2

II am experiencing an error trying to synchronize my Google Drive account with the Cloud Sync Task.
Unfortunately, however, the log only gives me this error: “Failed to copy with 3 errors: last error was: failed to open source object: can’t read dangling shortcut” but it doesn’t tell me which objects cause the error. Is there a possibility to have a more detailed log?

Hi, did you get any hint on how to find what caused this?

I’m seeing “can’t read dangling shortcut” as well. How do we figure out what dangling shortcut there is?

Oh! Here is how you do it.

Look at the task page:

SSH in and go to the log path. There, you’ll find a log. Look for lines like this:

2026/03/27 16:17:00 NOTICE: Dangling shortcut "<<file>>" detected
2026/03/27 16:17:02 ERROR : <<filepath>>/<<file>>: Failed to copy: failed to open source object: can't read dangling shortcut

And there ya go.
