Bug Description

I just installed Ubuntu One to try it out. Am a long-time user of a competing service, but would like to support Canonical.

First thing I did, after sync'ing one file to the cloud was to rename the folder "My Files"... the upper-case and space make it a small PITA to use with CLI.

That seemed to break the sync. The folder is no longer "connected" to Ubuntu One.

I have no idea where any of the config files, log, etc are, so I don't know how to get further information, but it should be trivial to reproduce this bug.

Hi, thanks for trying Ubuntu One.

As you noted, if yoy rename My Files it's not synced anymore.
Also, in order to rename My Files, you must change the permissions on the ~/Ubuntu One folder, so this clearly something you shouldn't be doing ;)

There is a bug abdout changing the current folder structure: #406938

I'll mark this as a dupe of 406938.

Regards.
