Sorry I can’t help you, but I’m having the same problem on Ubuntu Server 18.04. Hopefully someone knows whats going on.

Hi @schellenbergenator

Can you try to run the command insync-headless add_account -a AUTH_CODE

You can get the AUTH_CODE from www.insynchq.com/auth

Please let me know if this works :blush:

That worked great, Thanks.

Now I have another question maybe you can answer. How do I change the location of the sync folder on insync headless?
