      Sorry, it's MS hosted O365. It has worked well for over 6 months and just last week I started getting the error.

      You said it's a .htaccess file and .json files. Could it be a security setting blocking it?

        On ODfB I keep website backups for my clients. I have done this since day one.

        ODfB doesn't like to sync these files, but I usually ignore the errors. I have never found a place for ODfB to allow these files to be synced unless I zip the client's website backup folder.

          I would say zip it then. It'd be easier to manage at least.

            Must be something like hidden files being skipped.

              Before I do any of the above steps, I noticed that ODfB is syncing and has 9,976 remaining. I checked the ODfB folder and most of the folders have red Xs. Total size is 4.8GB.

              What is ODfB?

                I'm guessing OneDrive for Business.

                    I take it that you're not actually out of space in you ODfB account? How about on the local machine? If ODfB has to make a 'sync copy' would you run out of local disk space?

                          Try renaming one of those files without the dot in the front. I bet that it syncs.

                              Very inconvenient to rename xyz.jason files or .htaccess files, especially since they are backup website files.

                              I am now zipping all the website backups, again inconvenient, I have had 1 to 1 backups since 2003 without issues with other backup programs.

                                  Yeah, I know I saw that I wrote that after I hit submit.

                                  However the ability to have my data in ODfB for my clients websites means that I can do a restore from anywhere.

                                    I think that there are probably better ways to get similar results. A sync system for backup works pretty poorly. Why not just SFTP? Or RSYNC? Or even SVN or GIT?

                                    If you are automating ODFB, though, you could automate the zipping.

                                      Why not? I'm interested in this because I'm planning on using it for a backup program at home.

                                        Backup means a decoupling. ODFB is coupled to the source. If you build your own decoupling mechanism (see below) you can use it as storage for your own backup mechanism, but it is just synced storage intended for another purpose.

                                          ..that and the fact that it seems a bit crap and unreliable.

                                            If you attach ODFB to the filesystem you want to back up, it is coupled and not a backup (deletion or corruption of the source destroys the replicant automatically.)

                                            So to use as a backup component you need to decouple the original file from the replicant location. You can do this with a script easily enough. Take an hourly zip of a directory and copy it to the replicant folder for example.

                                            To make this better, make it make copies with the date in the name so that you have multiple restore copies at different times. If you don't do that, you'll accidentally recompile the naturally decoupled piece.

                                            In this scenario, though, your script is the backup system and ODFB is just online storage. You could do the same thing with Rackspace CloudFiles
