Hi,

I ported the official owncloud command line client to the n900. This means
that the libraries
qtkeychain
ocsync
are now available and can be used to implement a GUI. The advantage of porting the official sources is that the risk of data loss or bugs regarding the file handling is small. I tested the client for a couple of weeks and did not find any problems.

In order to install the owncloud command line client, install mirall from extras-testing. Furthermore, I provide a desktop icon and a small script to start the command line from the desktop in the package simple_oc.

Usage of simple_oc
Use the SimpleOwnCloud icon. Upon the first launch, you will be asked for username, password and url of your owncloud server. You can edit this information directly in the file . In order to run it regularly, just add the following entry in alarmed:
Bugs
Files on FAT filesystems might get immediately synced back once (and then distributed onto other clients) since the file access time is
only 2s precise. No data loss or corruption, but waste of data rate. EDIT: It seems, the file crawler "tracker" is responsible, too. This has to be investigated.

owncloudcmd crashes if parameters are in slightly wrong format!

For bug tracking, log files are created in /home/user/.oc_log/ and kept for 30 days.

Should get gui soon

In my view, there is no real need for a gui. It should synchronize reliably. The original gui is already available (with icon), but it does not open since, i guess, it just creates a tray icon which is not visible.

That's great, well done.

I don't suppose anyone's managed to get an OwnCloud server running on an N900? It's been discussed (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1378083), but no-one has claimed success yet.

Even if it were possible to have a web server on the n900 running owncloud: Owncloud needs a lot of memory to generate thumbnails etc. I would rather use seafile which is does not need a web server and which has a smaller footprint.

Hi again,

I have installed the packages but for me it is not working yet.

This are my logs:

Also I have realized that the icon is missing...

dont bother about this now since it looks like my server is down because electricity cut... I will report back tomorrow

Great Work
Do you think you can port it to harmattan too?
(e.g. to the OpenRepos?)

Hi,
is your server https (it should be) or http? Network unreachable does not sound like an owncloud problem.

is it availabe for adding to the desktop?

Sorry, I don't know how to do this an don't want to set up another emulator. But the debs are available as source and can easily be recompiled and repackaged under another environment.
