.PBS batches : Batch to a cloud only works in certain scenario

[pirrbe]

AP version .68 on OS win10pro with open link cloud Dropbox
Only scenario 1 and 4 works…

Scenario 1 : result OK but manual action requested

• open explorer
• right click for shell command on selected file
• select PowerArchiver/send to cloud/dropbox
  result : attachment.com pop up with dropbox but it stays static, no auto UL, click upload : ok, file uploaded and confirmed by dropbox

Scenario 2 : NO LINK, No upload

• open PowerArchiver
• select backup
• double click on a batch.pbs
• pop-up of settings screen
• select FINAL and DO BACKUP
  result : backup to local HD executed but NO upload to cloud

Scenario 3 : NO LINK, No upload
see scenario 2 but

• select a batch.pbs
• click on RUN
  result : backup to local HD executed but NO upload to cloud

Scenario 4 : this works but STRANGE, why this works ???

• startup as in scenario 2 but instead of directly pressing FINAL select one by one all settings and ending by FINAL and press now DO BACKUP…
  result : FULL AUTOMATED upload to cloud, no extra intervention… ???

Scenario 5 : No link, no upload but other behaviour

• open explorer
• select a .pbs in a folder with created batches
• double click on it
  result : jumps directly to the pop-up screen of the batch with message done… (local backup created but no upload to provider)

@spwolf I checked it yesterday with v170073 and today with v170074(:-)) and the 5 scenarios of start up batch (.pbs) works perfect ! Except scenario 1 still needs a manual activation of the cloud upload but I think this scenario rarely is used, as here you use PA just as an interface to UL files to a cloud. GREAT JOB ! Thanks.

so which one does not work, 5.? Thanks!

@spwolf ? scenario 1. Local backup is created, the ‘cloud’ pop-up window appears but you still need a manuel activation. But as I said : this option is not the best option as you use PA as an interface. PA will not compress the file, it just copies a file into your cloud, such as. So no big deal.

@pirrbe Clarification : in scenario 1 there is no batch .pbs involved. Here only the shell command (PA/send to cloud/dropbox) is used. And then this will copy a file such as… So scenario 1 was not at all to mention on my remarks on .pbs behaviours. Sorry.

@pirrbe great, thanks for letting us know!
