P: Desktop: Syncing Issues when Originals are stored on a NAS

You can check the status of issues at the top of the page. This one is still "In-Progress". When fixed, it will say solved. We are continuing to investigate this issue. Thank you for your continued patience. 

I quickly checked it, and it seems to persist.

Quick question: Is the recent update of LR supposed to fix the issue? I didn't try to move to the NAS yet.

Current status on this issue:

At Adobe we are currently unable to reproduce this problem in house with our NAS connected devices. In order to attempt to identify and fix the issue we would need a few persons experiencing the issue to do the following:

1. Contact me via Email indicating your willingness
2. Install a Config.lua file on your system.
3. Encounter the problem
4. Send us the requested log file
5. Provide NAS Model/Description
6. Provide Total Storage of NAS
7. Provide Total Free Space on the NAS

If you are willing and able to do this, contact me at (email removed)

I disconnected my NAS and reconnected it using the address `smb://diskstation/Photos` (where the `diskstation` hostname resolves to the same IP address as before) and when I relaunched LRCC it showed me the red bar across the top that says "/Volumes/Photos is disconnected. Please reconnect to finish syncing", even though that path exists and was mounted, albeit via a subtly different address.

I was trying a few different things to trick LRCC into accepting the "new" way of mounting the same NAS drive and eventually realised I should reset my preferences. After I did that it quickly scanned for the ~17k photos I have backed up to my NAS but had some sort of error. One option, though, was to 'forget path' or 'forget drive' which I did, and the error message in the red bar is now gone when I have /Volumes/Photos mounted via `smb://diskstation/Photos`, but I'm still seeing the same behaviour as in my original post.

I'm tempted to delete both the 'Managed Catalog.*' files within my `Lightroom Library.lrlibrary` bundle, as well as the `/Volumes/Photos/Lightroom CC` path and start the backup process again to see if that helps, because I'm running out of other ideas.

James, 

I am wondering if you mount your NAS by "Shared volume name" rather than by IP address if you see any difference?

Hi Rikk, the SMB URL I'm using it smb://192.168.1.5/Photos

I'll email my diagnostic log to you now, thanks.

72246 photos
~640 GB

I have the same (or similar) issue – I decided to move my ~70.000 originals from my Macs internal disk to a Synology NAS, and Lightroom started to move the originals there. This became slower and slower, and after three days I had to interrupt this by pressing the "stop until next run" button (don't know the English button text, translating from German). 

Now, whenever I start Lightroom, It first checks the photo indices, then it starts to check fotos - right now it says "Foto wird geprüft 120 von 32695" – but it seems to have stalled. Sometimes it stalls earlier, sometimes later. In any case, I will never see it reach the final count. 

What can I do to provide more debugging info?
