Setting up Blomp up as an Rclone Mount

Hey guys,

Found out through a friend about your service, and I am anxious to give it a try. You can not beat the basically $1/per TB!!!

Anywho, being an avid user of rclone, and seeing others have successfully used rclone + blomp, is there something restricting it from acting like a mount on Windows for the free plan? ( Again, new user, testing out ). When I set everything up and attempt to "mount" blomp, I get the following errors;
The service rclone has been started.
2024/11/01 23:42:22 ERROR : /: Dir.Stat error: container listing failed: Operation forbidden
2024/11/01 23:42:22 ERROR : IO error: container listing failed: Operation forbidden
Just seeing if I may be doing anything wrong?

Also, is there another thread on what supported flags Blomp will accept?
Like, if I wanted to upload a file, is it just;
rclone copy c:/dir/file.txt blomp:data_directory ?

Tried searching the forums and did not have much luck on any detailed information.

Thanks in advance

Hi Rob,

Thank you for your patience. :) We've looked into the issue and believe we've identified the cause of the error messages. Please make sure to use your email as the bucket.
We have noticed that you have been mounting as follows

rclone mount blomp:me@example.com ...

Rather than

rclone mount blomp: ...

Let us know if this will resolve the issue.

Thank you.

It was fixed when I found out the correct URL to use in rclone. Every since I fixed that, been loving your service :-)
