Failed mounting in archiveloop, after one step flash about teslausb HOT 9 CLOSED

Make sure the folder you're mounting has no spaces or other special characters in its name. This tripped me up for a while, and I think this is the error I was getting.

The documentation should make this requirement clear, or just surround each mounting argument in quotes so it works with spaces.

Does /mnt/archive exist?
Does it appear in /etc/fstab?
Are the username and password in /root/.teslaCamArchiveCredentials correct?

root@teslausb:~# cd /mnt/archive
root@teslausb:/mnt/archive# ls -a
.  ..
root@teslausb:/mnt/archive# cd /etc/fstab
-bash: cd: /etc/fstab: Not a directory
root@teslausb:/mnt/archive# 

There are video files on the pi though when I mount to my computer
Credentials are fine in .teslaCamArchiveCredentials...I think. I'm on MacOS and setup a shared folder and created a user named TeslaCam with a password and gave that user read/write to the folder. Maybe there is some trick I don't know with the file sharing in MacOS

/etc/fstab is a file, not a directory. Check the content of that file and see if there's an entry for /mnt/archive in there

That looks fine. You say your share is on a Mac though. Another user had problems with shared drive on MacOS too (see #27), and while it should in theory be as easy as telling the Mac to use SMB instead of AFP, I couldn't get it to work myself either.

Doh...thanks marcone, I'll have to try rclone4pi or something.

I set up TeslaUSB with a Mac and it is saving to a Mac. I lowered gradually CIFS version to 1.0, and then realized other problems were preventing it from working. It looks like you're still on CIFS 3.0. You might try 2.1, 2.0 or 1.0 and see if it works for you. I'm still on 1.0, since it's working for me.

I actually got it working today on the Mac with the default CIFS version 3.0. When entering in variables for the config I simply used no quotes for the password or others. I also made sure the folder didn't have cap characters.
