Hi.

I'v made the mistake of using the wrong path for my master folder, and the hard drive became full, and all sorts of operation became impossible. I've changed the path and now I have a bunch of files called \ or ' they seem to be copy of other files in the directory, and they seem to be unimportant and I can delete them (I store the original folder for sanity). I suspect that these files are generated by bitpocket, is this so? Can I delete them?

@yotama9 I'm not so sure they were created by bitpocket, since it uses rsync to actually perform the synchronization. I can't advise you as to whether or not you should delete data on your server; however, if you're sure they are copies of other files (using something like md5sum), then it might be safe to remove them?

If you don't mind sharing, could you post your incorrect and correct master folder paths? That would greatly help the discussion.

I honestly don't remember the failing path, I think I used the same path for both cases, but the path was a link to a different hard drive and the folder name was different (e.g. bipocket and Bitpocket). Or maybe I forget to set up the link in the faulty case, I'm really don't sure, sorry.
