#10094: Cyberduck (and Mountain Duck) do not properly handle symlinked config
folders
---------------------------+------------------------------------------
Reporter: luckman212 | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: core | Version: 6.2.6
Severity: normal | Keywords: bookmarks, symlink, hardlink
Architecture: | Platform: macOS 10.13
---------------------------+------------------------------------------
Cyberduck Version 6.2.6 (26405)
MountainDuck 2.0.2 (8111)
Tested on macOS 10.12.6 and 10.13
I like to share my bookmarks between 3 computers. For this I use
ResilioSync (used to be BTSync). The way I do this for all my other apps
is, move the config folder to the Sync folder and then create a Symlink in
the original spot for it to read from. This works for all other apps but
not for Cyberduck/MountainDuck. They refuse to acknowledge the symlink
and either hang when launched (Cyberduck) or just show no bookmarks
(MountainDuck).
I had "solved" this in 10.12 using Hardlink instead of Symlink - which did
work, however now that I am on 10.13 with APFS filesystem, hardlinks are
no longer supported and so this is not working again.
Please if you can support the fact that the bookmarks folder might be a
Symlink that would be excellent
