Windows client does not automatically start after login

[Matt Griffin]

I have to manually start the Ubuntu One application (dashboard) for file sync to start ("File Sync starting...").
I would expect that the sync software would start after login and that the taskbar icon would appear... so sync starts running automatically.

I created a new folder called pics-temp-2 in Ubuntu and it was not created in Windows. The webui showed the new folder.
I copied files from ~/Ubuntu One/Pictures/misc/ to ~/Ubuntu One/Pictures/misc/pics-temp-2 in Ubuntu and the changes were not reflected in Windows. The webui showed the file changes.

Hello Matt!

Thanks for the report. Can you please confirm how can you tell that syncdaemon has not started when you login?
Also, can you please compress and attach all the logs from syncdaemon?

Win XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\xdg\cache\

Win 7:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\xdg\cache\

Thanks!

Can't recreate. Sync is now automatically starting in Ubuntu One for Windows. Marked as invalid.

And I just recreated it :) Logs coming soon.

I'd say it is breaking because of missing quotes around the Run entries in registry - we rely on the guessing behavior of windows shell. We definitely need to quote the path to the executable,

I will add the quotes and do a test build today.

This might be related to bug #900532, that's waiting for logs.
