"bad request" due to "dangerous Request.Path" persists despite file deletion

[Elwro]

I'm using 1.1.4 on Ubuntu 21.04. The client was working great until I created a file with a star '*' in its name. Then I started getting these messages:

Downloading changes of [REMOVED]
Uploading file ./dzialalnosc_naukowa/sonatabis/wspolna_literatura/elimination_counterexamples/python/*Python*~...HTTP request returned status code 400 (Bad Request)
{
    "error": {
        "code": "invalidRequest",
        "innerError": {
            "client-request-id": "57a65f56-79c3-4251-a5bc-e390aa2681b2",
            "code": "badArgument",
            "date": "2021-09-23T10:14:50",
            "request-id": "57a65f56-79c3-4251-a5bc-e390aa2681b2"
        },
        "message": "A potentially dangerous Request.Path value was detected from the client (*)."
    }
}

I have promptly deleted the offending file. However, the issue persists -- the client says it attempts to upload the nonexistent file. (And eventually stops working without uploading any other files.) What should I do?

@Elwro

The 'skilion' client does not receive any support (reference) and contains issues / defects that put you at risk of data loss. Despite a new version release in Oct 2020, these defects remain. If you wish to use a client which is fully supported please refer to: https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive

Regarding your specific issue, the 'skilion' codebase does not handle API queries where paths contain wildcards, because the path is not correctly escaped.

Major differences / Enhancements between codebases:

• Existing bugs with this client are fixed
• File upload / download validation to ensure data integrity
• Support for SharePoint / Office 365 Shared Libraries
• Support for OneDrive Business Shared Folders
• Support for Docker
• Desktop notifications via libnotify
• Dry-run capability to test configuration changes
• Prevent major OneDrive accidental data deletion after configuration change
• Support National Azure Cloud instances
• Supports single & multi-tenanted applications
• Supports rate limiting of traffic

Thank you very much, I will move to your client
