Most of the time no error messages are given, but the error can be caused by a colon (`:`) and be

Simply renaming files and folders to not include colons fixes the problems most of the time.

### Stuck with `Synchronizing files in local folder`
|
||||
|
||||
When the NextCloud client is stuck with in an idle loop that is characterized by a status like
|
||||
`Synchronizing files in local folder` and/or `Syncing file 0 of <file-number>` where `<file-number>`
|
||||
is an arbitrarily large number of files.
|
||||
When checking the logging file in `~/.local/share/Nextcloudoud_sync.log` there won't be any obvious
|
||||
error messages.
|
||||
In fact there will only be a sync running without it finishing - unless interrupted manually.
|
||||
|
||||
However, this problem can easily be fixed with the following steps.
|
||||
First the NextCloud instance which is stuck needs to be stopped.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
nextcloud --quit
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Afterward some files have to be removed.
|
||||
Firstly delete the cache at `~/.local/share/Nextcloud`.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
rm -rf ~/.local/share/Nextcloud/*
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And secondly remove the synchronization files in the NextCloud folder.
|
||||
`<nextcloud-folder>` is the placeholder for that.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
rm -rf <nextcloud-folder>/.sync_*
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, restart NextCloud and the system should not be stuck anymore.
|
||||
Please note that after this steps a complete re-check of all files will be due.
|
||||
This however does not mean that all files will be downloaded or uploaded again.
|
||||
They will just be checked and only if the local version differs will they be synchronized.
