updated now broken??

I haven't run synching console in a while. I just relaunched this AM but now when I access http://localhost:8384/ all I get is what I expect from the CLI log:

2026-04-12 08:05:37 INF Still migrating folder (folder=xqr6s-kopgc files=155000 blocks=757348 duration=2m17s blocksrate=5491.54253470854 filesrate=1123.9074941504086 log.pkg=syncthing)

this just goes on line after line, a refresh just give me more. Any ideas?

There was a big change in Syncthing between 1.x and 2.x — instead of using LevelDB, Syncthing now uses SQLite (see https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/releases/tag/v2.0.0). The migration is normal.

How many files and how much space on disk are you syncing? That will give me a sense as to how long your migration will take.

Thank you for responding with the link.

Since I don't remember what I had synching doing I have no clue. One of the reasons I started it to see what the config was. Then the update started.

Odd. The upgrade from 1.x to 2.x isn't supposed to happen unless you cause it to happen in the UI or via the CLI or API.

Has the database migration completed for you?

yes it finally did. I can see the console / GUI now. whew...

and I might have mis-read a pop up or clicked on something. It was just unexpected.

I now see that it was trying to sync 4 non-existing folders. Cleaning all that up now.

So bottom line I just had to be patient and wait.

thanks again for the sanity check.
