Acrosync will not access drive after re-init and new volumes

System was working fine, but needed more space.
Synology DS218j
Acrosync V x64 1.7

It was installed as a service, I stopped that.

Added a new hard disk, reinitialized all. Created two volumes where before there was just one.

Trying to access the drive with my acrosync backup software using the same credentials as before, but when I access Guard1495@handicappedpets.synology.me with a password I know works, I get "Permission denied, please try again" from Acrosync.
I can log into the drive no problem locally and remote.

Would the fact that there are now two volumes (with different names) cause access to change? Is Acrosync saving some hidden parameter that tied it to the old volume name/structure.

Also tried creating anew user on the drive, no luck.

Verbose log:

2019/06/03 09:40:47    Permission denied, please try again.

  • I tried a fresh install of acrosync on a new computer, still cannot access through acrosync, although I can access fine from that PC through a browser.

  • Now I enabled rsync account on the disks control panel. The error changed to ERROR: Module is write only
  • OK - Sio I unchecked "Over SSH" on the acrosync control panel, changing the port from 22 to 873
    now it works.
  • This looks like that the SSH account you used to log in does not have the permission to access the new volume.  When you switch to rsync, it uses a different permission setting (configured in /etc/rsyncd.conf).
