Debian Buster insync installation doesnt work

Hello,
I am using insync since years and this on all of my Linux and Windows systems.
After a new installation of my system, I run Debian Buster (Kernel 4.18.0-3-amd64) and added the insync repository.

After running
“sudo apt install insync” I cant start insync like before my new system installation.

Every try of using any command on my terminal gives me the same output:

insync quit
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “isyncd/linux/headless/cli.py”, line 108, in ipc_insync
File “socket.py”, line 228, in meth
error: [Errno 111] Connection refused

I read some other topics with the same or similar problems but nothing helps.

Any idea what I can do?

Thanks in advance

Exact same problem here :

insync show
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “isyncd/linux/headless/cli.py”, line 108, in ipc_insync
File “socket.py”, line 228, in meth
error: [Errno 111] Connection refused

also :

insync start --no-daemon

Debian Buster is supposed to be released in less than 3 weeks.

Thank you for reaching out, @Batsatac!

Tagging our engineer @Kurt_Ko for further assistance. :slight_smile:

I have the same problem.
Debian testing (Buster), Insync installed for a few years now. It stopped working a few weeks ago.

I’ve been having same problem on Buster.

My previous workaround was to simply uninstall and re-install every reboot(!) But thanks to @SabrinaTigik over at this thread here a superior workaround is to switch to the ubuntu/artful repo in your apt sources…

That has got me back to work. Will switch back to debian/buster on next release to see if they’ve solved it.

Hi…I see the same issue as you: latest Buster image uses .57 kernel while the raspberrypi-kernel-headers package installs headers from .58. Normally these should be in sync unless you’ve installed a custom kernel or have run rpi-update.

I have the exact same problem but on Mac os. Seems to be stuck on some .git files (yes I’m uploading a git repo)
