Hello,

I have a batch file which I can run manually and it syncs my two folder, that's fine...

When I drop it into RealTimeSync it fills out the lines and when I start RealTimeSync it is shown down below on the right but it doesn't sync changes...

What can I do to check what's wrong?

The last time I tried to make it working I could klick on the batch manually and it was syncing but that doesn't work anymore so I can only use FreeFileSync, not the batch file and not RealTimeSync...

I did all the same way as they show you in the YouTube vids...

Hope the attached files are ok?

If you aren't able to double-click the ffs_batch config to run it, it may be worth remaking it from scratch to see what happens. Maybe ffs-batch files aren't registered to open with FFS for some reason?

OK, it wasn't registred to FFS anymore, I don't know what has changed it...

Now it's running and syncing when I click on it...

But RealTimeSync still isn't working... I tried another sync prog yesterday and had the same prob, but that prog did say "you don't have the rights to run the prog in background"... So how can I give FFS the right to run on background?

Finally RealTimeSync made up an error message...

I'd suggest running /app/extra/FreeFileSync/FreeFileSync /home/markus/Daten1/Office/Syncthing/Office/Misc/Bash/Test01.ffs_batch from the terminal. Perhaps the app is crashing, and the terminal might show some useful info: signal 31 = SIGSYS = Bad system call

Shouldn't I run RealTimeSync instead of FreeFileSync in the Terminal?
Because FFS is running fine, it's RTS that's not running at all...

When I run the code you provided the I get a message "didn't find the folder"...

This is just as a test. RTS makes the same call.

There is something wrong with "/app/extra/FreeFileSync/FreeFileSync" because the Terminal sais "didn't find path or file"...

The second part is correct:
"/home/markus/Daten1/Office/Syncthing/Office/Misc/Bash/Test01.ffs_batch"

I even tried "/home/markus/Test01.ffs_batch"
