Well, the fact that it's all "0" changes on the second sync means that BookMacster is able to correctly export to Chromium; at least, Chromium does not immediately barf on the export.

BookMacster uses a slightly different "style", depending on whether Chromium is running in the subject profile or not.  If you click in the menu: BookMacster > Logs it will tell you what style was used.  An entry that reads:

Will read from Chromium in style 1

means that Chromium was not running, and BookMacster accessed the bookmarks file directly.

An entry that reads

Will read from Chromium in style 2

means that Chromium was running, and BookMacster accessed the bookmarks via its Chromium extension.

See if you are able to export repeatedly in both Style 1 and Style 2 with +0 Δ0 ↖0 ↕0 -0 changes.

If so, then if you turn on syncing, and say tomorrow morning at 9:00 AM you see a Safe Sync Limit warning, it means that something hit your Chromium bookmarks a few minutes earlier.

Sorry for the indirect answer 

Hello again, FatalError.

What if you repeat the successful export immediately?  The second time, there should be no Safe Limit warning, because BookMacster and Chromium should be in sync from the first export.

Uninstalled, Installed, Tested > ok, green checkmark

Sync seems to work. I think that did the trick. Will observe further, but case might be solved.

Info Sent. Thanks for setting up a key. Now your users can safely send you sensitive information. That is great news imo.

I just tried starting from scratch by Choosing BookMacster "Reset and Start Over..."

I also removed all bookmarks in chromium to omit any potential issues with existing bookmarks there.

Did import from FF and then when activating automatic sync, on the initial export (which is showing up via a dialogue) I get:

Our Chromium extension is not responding in profile "Erster Nutzer".  A response is now required to keep those bookmarks in sync.

To fix this, try to quit Chromium, then return here and click "Retry"

I did that (closed chromium) and BookMacster did it's attempt but after a few seconds chromium restarted and again I saw:

Our Chromium extension is not responding in profile "Erster Nutzer".  A response is now required to keep those bookmarks in sync.

To fix this, try to quit Chromium, then return here and click "Retry"

This time:

Export failed

Chromium stopped responding while BookMacster was exporting to it.

✔  To prevent recurrence, syncing has been paused.  To resume syncing, after the issue is resolved, click the 'Syncing' button in the toolbar.

Suggestion to Fix this Error:
Make sure that Chromium is either in a responsive state or is quit.  Then activate username-01.bkmslf in BookMacster and command an export to Chromium manually.

If that doesn't resolve the problem, click in the menu BookMacster > Manage Browser Add-Ons.  Uninstall, (Re)Install and Test the first extension for Chromium.  Then retry the export.

Interapp messaging error : Server port (com.sheepsystems.BookMacster.ExtoreChromium.Default.ToClient) not found


So maybe my chromium profile got corrupted? Or maybe this brings you closed to what's not working in regard to chromium. After this automatic syncing shows a "!" indicating there are problems.

Hi, will do, but not sure if I can include all bookmarks. That makes identifying a person rather easy and is somewhat of a unique fingerprint. So I might skip that step.

I couldn't find any OpenPGP for support@sheepsystems.com . Could you create one and either upload the public key to the key servers or attach it to this discussion to provide secure transport for the log info.

Sounds good and indeed like a smart solution to the FF issue.

Just FYI, just ran into a "Sheep-Sys-Worker" error:

An error has occurred.

To launch BookMacster and view Errors now, click "View".

To save until the next time you launch BookMacster, click "Next Time".

When clicking "view" I am greeting by the known chromium warning:

An Export operation was aborted because it would have caused 77 items to be added to, 368 items to be updated in, and 77 items to be deleted from Chromium.

The total, 522 changes, exceeds your Safe Sync Limit of 25 for Chromium.

Do you *really* want to *DELETE* 77 items in Chromium?  If not, click "Cancel".

Suggestion to Fix this Error:
Click 'Open' to open the document.  Then retry manually by clicking in the menu: File > Export to all.  You'll get more info.

✔  To prevent recurrence, syncing has been switched off.  To resume syncing, after the issue is resolved, click the 'Syncing' button in the toolbar.

When this error occurred:
2015-02-12 12:27:12

No need to react to this. Just trying to keep you posted on what I see and run into during normal workdays

Under Bookmarkshelf > Document Information I get the following info:

This Document contains 16 subfolders and 480 Bookmarks.

If you want screensharing access to this machine let me know.

While trying to export only to > chromium I get another:
The proposed Export operation will cause 77 items to be added to, 399 items to be updated in, and 77 items to be deleted from Chromium.

The total, 553 changes, exceeds your Safe Sync Limit of 25 for Chromium!  Are you sure you want to do this export?

I went into Application Support > BookMacster and found several Log files:

Logs.sql
Logs~.sql
Logs~~.sql
in total 5 files.

In Bookmarkshelf Documents folder I found 4 shelfes

NameofShelf.bkmslf
NameofShelf~.bkmslf
...

I removed all but the one file without any "~".

Let's see if this improves the situation. I'll keep testing syncing to chromium.
