Disk Utility warnings in OS X Mojave and OneDrive for mac

Anonymous

OneDrive for Mac (v 18.222.1104.0007) is causing error in OS X Disk Utility (OS X Mojave 10.14.2 and 10.14.1):

warning: inode_val: object (oid 0xcb5b5): invalid bsd_flags (0x10)

Found this being OneDrive by re-installing the operating system and also by converting 0xcb5b5 to decimal format and running " find / -inum 832949 " in terminal.

I also send a support ticket but those tips didn't work (see bellow):

-------------------- START OF SUPPORT ANSWER -----------------------

Dear Customer, 

You are now in contact with the support team by e-mail. 

Regarding your issue please verify the following information in the article to check if the issue is related to this:https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3125202/restrictions-and-limitations-when-you-sync-files-and-folders 

After verifying the information above please continue to reset the OneDrive app: 

1-Launch Activity Monitor & Kill OneDrive processes  

2-Launch Keychain Access and delete OneDrive keys  

3-End OneDrive processes and Keys  

4-First, navigate to the OneDrive application. Then you Control-click the application. When you do that, you should see the following menu appear:  

5-From that menu, select “Show Package Contents”. You will then see a list of folders and files within the OneDrive application. Note: don’t mess with things in here as it could break your application.  

6-Within the “Contents” folder, scroll down to the “Resources” folder.  

Search for: ResetOneDriveAppStandalone.command 

It’s not an application. It just a script that is run in the terminal. Note, when you run it, you may need to authenticate as an administrator.  

To run the script, just double-click on it. It should launch Terminal and run through a variety of options. Once it has finished, you are done!  

7-Once you have run the script (and already did the other 2 items earlier), you should be able to launch OneDrive as if it were a completely new installation. You should be prompted to enter your login information and start synchronizing.  

------------------------- END OF SUPPORT MESSAGE --------------------------

Only thing happened after "clean install of OneDrive" was that the DiskUtility error is now this (the object value has changed):

warning: inode_val: object*(oid 0x1281e1**): invalid bsd_flags (0x10)*

Is this a known problem or something new?

Hi All,

Thanks for letting us know your situation and sharing your experience here. We totally understand your frustration for encountering this, we are always more than willing to help all users in this community.

We have discussed internally with higher level support resources on this issue. Disk Utility error warnings occur from Mac Disk Utilities and Terminal since both are Apple products, it is hard for us to get the source code for further investigation even though we would like to do. We also do not understand the logic it used to flag the OneDrive at first place. So we believe it is the best to reach out to Apple support first for this case.

From our side, a support ticket number is required for our product team to check more details if you still need our help. Once the ticket is created, please post back here as soon as you can. We will contact our related team again then.

We really appreciate your understanding.

    I honestly can not tell you that. I deleted both files in mine and saved all files to separate file. All I was trying to do was get rid of the Warning in Recovery>Repair. I am not going to reinstall OneDrive until Microsoft issues an updated app when hopefully they have tracked down the flaw. You would have thought Microsoft would have fixed it by now.

    Hi All,

    As we still haven’t received any service request number from you, if you still have concern about the problem, we would suggest you click “More” within OneDrive app > send feedback to the related team directly to show more business impact.

    @Mullawoo,

    Notebooks are synced within from OneNote but not OneDrive. Your issue is a little different from others. We would suggest you use the feedback tool in the upper-right corner of the OneNote app to send feedback directly.

    Thanks for your understanding,

    Rena

    Hello,

    My name is Shana, and I would like to apply for a service request, as I too, now have OneDrive as well as OneNote throwing up flags.  I have quite a bit of computer knowledge, and I've tried everything to repair the problem within the Mac ecosystem, by checking what was causing the flags, in terminal, as well as repairing permissions. It is not a permission problem.  Basically these two products you have put out have the wrong node attached to the file.  The problem is NOT the OneDrive app itself, but the OneDrive folders it creates.  Because OneNote syncs with these folders, it too inherits the wrong node number.  It is a problem with Microsoft, not Apple.  Every other cloud service under the sun on my computer doesn't cause these flags, so either you guys fix it, or I will have to cancel my subscription. The flag is causing havoc on my machine. It's slowing things down, and it is extremely annoying.  Please place my service request, and I expect to be given a solution in a timely manner, given the amount of time I have been dealing with this problem.  It is not right to do this to your loyal customers.

    So we're lying ? We got the problem on the 3 version 10.14.1 to 10.14.3 !!!!

    I want just to remember you that we're r professionals using your software and paying monthly for this usage. 

    May be we have to go to courts to get you respecting your contract and force you to pay for our data degradation.

    Waiting for a professional answer ant not a BS.

    Hi janveCI,

    According toFixes or workarounds for recent issues in OneDrive, seems there is no known issue regarding this now. However, I found the similar issue based on your information in OneDrive UserVoice. Here isremove warning: inode_val: object : invalid bsd flags for your reference.

    You are both on Mojave and similar error message except different codes. 

    So I would like to confirm the following information for further assistance:

    1.You mentioned that OneDrive is causing this error in Disk Utility. How did you get this warning? 

    2.Seems you type "find / -inum 832949" in Terminal and find the related path which points OneDrive. Could you share the screenshot of the result of running this cmdlet in Terminal with us to better understand it?

    3.What's the result when you run "find / -inum 1212897" on your end?

    Besides, you have submitted a support ticket before. We would also like to collect the ticket number via Private Message to help check it if it's convenient for you.

    Regards,

    Eli
