Just got an astonishing email from an anonymizer service. Hopefully they
don't mind me pasting the contents here, because I don't have time to
look into it at the moment. They suggest a resolution for
crash.20220424:
Hello,
I see recent git change for your simplesshd app for
RemoteServiceException. I worked on fixing that in my own app before
and some devices have the issue, some don't. Its with the foreground
notification use that people have been using and is something Google
hasn't fixed.
You can work around it by using WorkManager and Worker. You don't need
to use the foreground stuff that way. I switched over my own apps that
way successfully and no more problems from that situation.
You can lookup "RemoteServiceException workmanager" and a stack
overflow page suggests this which is the only way I found to solve it.
I see you will also need to include the Android 11+ storage usage of
asking the user to select a folder for access using new
Intent(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE), getting repeat URI use of
the path & files from DocumentFile via
DocumentFile.fromTreeUri(context, uri) for reading and writing to go
with it for all the public storage use.
Hope that helps.
I'm just sending from a temporary email address. Don't reply as I
won't get it. I'm not interested in back and forth :-)
I have faith that's a useful breadcrumb for RemoteServiceException. I'm
not sure what the ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE part has to do with...I've
looked into that before and was unable to figure out a way to use that to
directly access the filesystem in a sensible fashion but maybe there is a
way to get a real unix path access from it, or maybe it has improved
somewhat since the last time I looked at it. I probably won't be able to
make sense of that part until I am stuck with a phone that limits me and
I need to actually work through it. Maybe when I set up an Android 12
emulator I will see what's up.
XXX - for Jose Miguel, script to run when user clicks 'start' or even when IP changes? to like use curl to notify about a dynamic IP..
XXX - update rsync version for Michael H
