The storage has not been initialized

Suddenly getting this error for my storage. It was working fine until a few weeks ago. No settings have been changed.

The exact same storage works fine if I access it by SSH. Just not by folder

If I try to readd it I get Failed to initialize the storage at /backup/duplicacy: Failed to download the configuration file from the storage: Failed to retrieve the config file: cipher: message authentication failed

Is /backup/duplicacy a samba mounted directory? If so maybe there is some issue with the samba service?

@gchen I think I figured out the issue. This has happened to me under other circumstances too.

For some reason if the directory is mounted after duplicacy docker starts it thinks it’s not there. It doesn’t actually check.

If you simply restart the duplicacy docker again it sees everything fine. But if you don’t it pretends the files aren’t actually there for some reason.
