Komparator is an application that searches and synchronizes two directories. It discovers duplicate, newer or missing files and empty folders.
It works on local and network / kioslave protocol folders (like smb:/, ftp://, media:/ or fonts:/ ;-).

These compile issues might come from outdated development packages on your system. This library is no explicit dependency, maybe it's pulled in by qt.
So please upgrade your distribution.

kdebase-kioslaves-3.5.*
or similar (depends on your distribution).
Before installation I got an error messages "unknown protocol...", now it works (tested with smb protocol, but should work with other kioslave protocols as well).

Could not start process Unable to create io- slave:
klauncher said: unknown protocol 'fish'.
Example url: fish://mike@192.168.0.100/home/mike/Documents
However, I can open Konqueror or Dolphin and connect to my laptop immediately using the the same url. Maybe not a problem with Komparator but with KDE 4?
I'm using version .9 on both my desktop (Fedora 10) and laptop (Fedora 9) computers. The laptop uses KDE4 also and Komparator works on the laptop.
Thanks,
Mike

Could not start process Unable to create io- slave:
klauncher said: unknown protocol 'smb'.
I can access the share with Konqueror or Dolphin using the the same url as I enter in Komparator.
I'm running KDE 4.2 on Kubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid) and using Komparator version 0.9-1.
I hope someone can help us as this app looks to be ideal for my needs.
Thanks,

Komparator might not be able to use KDE 4 kioslaves, so you should install KDE 3 kioslaves.
Try to use konqueror 3.5.x and see, whether it works with smb kioslaves.

quick suggestions:
add to result filetering (make it more like "extended search" options
- dates range
- "show only items of type" like in Konqueror, or some other type filtering
- wild cards functionality "*" in name
thanks, great app.

On http://komparator.sourceforge.net/bug.html you mention your email address but it is not there.
Unfortunately Komparator 0.8 crashes most of the time here on PCLinux 2007, usually before displaying the results. I had the same problem with 0.7 too. comparing directories on the same ext3 partition.

thanks!
This homepage is using frames, so if you visit
http://komparator.sourceforge.net/
you'll see the email adress... But I'll include it also in bug.html.
You seem to have enabled the systray icon. Can you disable it to see whether it continues crashing?
Probably it is better to continue the discussion via email.

The idea is, if you have compressed backups on one machine, say a laptop, and you keep the backups on a main backup machine. The synchronize button would just update the ones on the remote backup drive.
Or does this already exist and I missed it?
thanks!

thanks. Always good to hear from people actually using it...
Your idea is good, and I think, I will include such a "shortcut button" in the next release.
At the moment you'd have to copy the missing files manually, and automatically renaming the older files is impossible.
But I don't know, how soon the next release will come, as I plan to rewrite big parts of the GUI. But it will come.

I want new files at either end to be synced automatically in the background, and conflicts to be flagged up to me when they occur.
Can this be done with this application?

Maybe this program should be moved to the category Administration -> Archiving/Backup.
