New issue 50 by d...@mairie-aubagne.com: duplicate detection
http://code.google.com/p/google-docs-upload/issues/detail?id=50

I'm using the following batch to upload an excel spreadsheet : java -jar
E:\gdu\google-docs-upload-1.4.6.jar "\\xxxxx\xxxxx\xxxxx\AGENDA
EVENEMENTIEL" -u xxx@xxx -p xxxxx -ra
The batch file is running every five minute on a windows 2008 r2 server and
upload an excel spreadsheet called "AGENDA 2011.xls"

The expected output is a single up-to-date AGENDA 2011 spreadsheet on
google docs but randomly the duplicate detection isn't working.
See the result in attached file.
The shared one should be updated but sometimes a new one is created instead.

I am also having a problem with duplicate detection
I am uploading a folder that has subfolders for each staff member and that
sub folder is sometimes recreated the new folder is not shared with them so
they can not see it.
I have 151 user folders i.e. jdoe that is shared with john doe at his
google apps account jd...@ourschools.org
it duplicates most of them then it gets to the m's and works fine for i.e.
mjones thru zsmith

I am on os x 10.6
used tags --recursive --username u...@ourschools.org --password $pass
--without-conversion --skip-all
when I run I have a total of 257 files to check
worked fine when I tests with only 6 sub folders so I may need to rework my
script to upload each staff members folder on its own

rebuilt my script to upload each user sub folder individually the same
folders duplicated.
figured out that it is the name on googles side is not flagging as
duplicate. if I right click the folder on google and select rename and the
click ok with out changing the name it then does not duplicate the folder.

I faced the duplicate issue I am uploading a folder of 6 files; 2 of my
files out of 6 got duplicated. I deleted the 2 new files created and ran
the script again which resolved the issue. I am not sure why the
duplication happened. I am using the below script:

java -jar C:\gdu\google-docs-upload-1.4.7.jar %1 -protocol https
--recursive -u x...@xyz.com -p xyz -ra %*

I'm having the same issue:

java -jar %bin_path%google-docs-upload-1.4.7.jar kml --without-folders
-username XXXX -password XXXX --protocol https --without-conversion
--replace-all --remote-folder XXXX

- I'm uploading the files in the directory data once per hour
- often a new file is created
- but sometimes a new remote-folder is created - which is even more
frustrating.

If I'm sharing the GDocs folder to others, suddenly the files get uploaded
into the new directory and the reciepients are still looking at the older,
non updating folder.

I sugest looking in to Google drive I have changed my scripts to write in
to Google Drive folder then let it upload and sync to google. you can have
your script handle duplicates.

What version of google api does this tool use? In the short term I wrote
something to remove the duplicates. It would be nice if you could proved a
way to pass in the document key that way you could ensure you are updating
the correct doc

I see the issue the code looks for the folder to update by name if there
are two folder with the same name it will always select the first folder.

It looks like parts of the api failure creates a duplicate folder .... (the
code will always find the new folder first)
