I am trying to re-run a file sync for the second time, but I get this error:

"waiting while directory is in use - sync.ffs_lock"

The first time I ran this sync there was no problem

I have restarted the container, and rebooted the server.


My setup:
- Unraid - running the official docker container
- I had to redo the container path setup to add another folder. I reset all folder names to the correct new paths. (I wonder if this has something to do with it?)

It appears to have cleared itself after another reboot.
