Comment 11 for bug 764057

The fundamental problem is that the sync daemon either doesn't start properly or fails, so there are waiting uploads stuck in the queue, which remain on logout.

I get this on all of my Ubuntu 11.04 clients.

I've tried "Logout anyway" and you are left with unsync'd changes.

To diagnose and work around I have to run this when I start working on files and check the status again on the command-line when I've finished working on files:

  # Status command will probably tell you that files are uploading or waiting upload, but nothing is happening
  u1sdtool --status

  # How many items are awaiting upload?
  u1sdtool --waiting | wc -l

  85

  # Start file sync daemon that seems to have failed
  u1sdtool --start

  # Keep running 'how many items are awaiting upload?' and watch it gradually (slowly) decrease to zero
  u1sdtool --waiting | wc -l
  u1sdtool --waiting | wc -l
  u1sdtool --waiting | wc -l

  # Status should now show IDLE and you will get notification that files are uploaded
  u1sdtool --status

This sucks
