Hi, I’m using kubuntu 22.04, and have installed cernbox from repo.2.10.1, but can’t seem to connect to my folders. Upon launching, I get the connection wizard. First it request a server address, and I use [https://cernbox.cern.ch](https://cernbox.cern.ch). Then my usual cern id & pw. Then “Setup local folders”. One option is to sync /home, which the app thinks only contains 87 MB (it has GB of stuff in). But, ok, I select that, then get to the usual app homepage. No active connections are visible, and nothing syncs. I can access my files no problem through the web interface, but would appreciate any help with the linux client. thanks, Gavin ---

Hi Gavin, I have the same setup and it works for me. The only difference is that I don’t sync local /home (remote home is synced in a local home subdir). Maybe you can try this to see if the problem comes from this. ---

Thanks for the reply, there must be something in my setup… In the connection wizard, I see three options: - sync the folder ‘/home’ - choose what to sync (here I can see all the folders I have in my CERNBox) - manually create folder sync connections It does not seem to matter which of these I choose; after the wizard closes, I get the home app page which says “No CERNBox connection configured” - attached screenshots. I’m stuck… Not even sure how to debug this. ![Screenshot_20220817_150825](https://linux-community.web.cern.ch/uploads/default/original/1X/8eb70173880f672e69702e013023d495d08cc2c2.png) ---

Strange. From the app, press F12 and you can enable file logging. ---

Solved it! I set up the client on Windows, which has a different setup wizard - on the linux version, the first step of the wizard is to enter a server address; on windows it defaults to this server: [https://cernbox.cern.ch/cernbox/desktop](https://cernbox.cern.ch/cernbox/desktop) Using this server in the linux client as well then correctly accesses my files (I was using just [https://cernbox.cern.ch](https://cernbox.cern.ch) as the server in the linux client).
