Feat request for encrypted files / logging

Post by solemgar »

Hi!

Would it be possible that logs for encrypted files show the paths and filenames unencrypted? Otherwise it's very hard to follow which operations are happening.

Thanks!

Hello,
yes, in general they do that - or they show both the encrypted and the unencrypted name.

Can you post a specific example of a few log lines where the clear text names are missing?

Also mention the Syncovery version please.

Hi Tobias! Thanks for the quick reply, these are some log snippets

Code: Select all

Syncovery is latest available (9.13b). Maybe this could be set as a configurable option if some people prefer the encrypted logging?

Thank you! (and this is not urgent at all!)

Hello,
the snippet is too short. This is moving a part of a larger file. The unencrypted filename is surely logged also, a bit further above or below.

But the best way to get a complete listing is to use "Output Left/Right File Listings" on the Program Settings dialog, tab sheet Logs. This will give you a pretty HTML file listing with encrypted and clear text file names. But remember to turn the option off when not needed, because the full listings will be created every time the job runs and never cleaned up automatically.

Thanks Tobias, indeed the html listing has the unencrypted file names and helps a lot. Thank you!
