When clicking on the drive icon in the menubar (edit: and notifications are off for Internxt Drive in system settings), the SyncExtension.log cycles

[tcrgit]

If it is not idiosyncratic this bug should be pretty self-explanatory and easy to replicate, but here are some steps to do so.

(1) Open up the logs folder using the menubar icon, cog wheel, Preferences -> Open logs
(2) Open the SyncExtension.log (doubleclick will open console app)
(3) Start a larger upload (eg 1gb) by copying a file into the internxt folder using the finder.
(4) Verify in the SyncExtension.log file that the upload has started.
(5) Click on the menubar icon. That's all you need to do clear and cycle the log.
(6) Verify SyncExtension.log is not relatively empty, and there should be a new cycled (date and time) SyncExtension.log file in the logs folder.
(7) Note that if the cycled (date and time) SyncExtension.log file is open in the console, XCGLogger will throw an error (bc file can't be deleted because it is open) and in this case the SyncExtension.log file will not cycle, and another "Changes enumerated correctly ..." line will appear in the SyncExtension.log.

Present in 2.5.7 but unsure about earlier versions. I am running MacOs Sequoia 15.5 on a m1 pro macbook.

Content after step 5 will be something like (anonymized):

2025-07-13 01:23:49.389 [Info] > SyncExtension Version: 2.5.7 Build: 76 PID: 4xxx

Another wrinkle is that I noticed the following line in the errors.log

2025-07-13 01:10:44.138 [Error] [Error.swift:14] > Error Domain=UNErrorDomain Code=1 "Notifications are not allowed for this application" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Notifications are not allowed for this application}

So I subsequently turned on the notifications for Internxt drive in system settings (all were off). Turning notifications on had no immediate effect.

However, after rebooting with notifications turned on, the bug appears to have vanished and the SyncExtension.log does not cycle but behaves as expected. Quitting the internxt drive application, turning all notifications off again and then restarting internxt drive again from spotlight (without rebooting) did not cause the bug to recur.

Further testing showed that turning off notifications for Internxt Drive and logging out of my Mac user account from the Apple Menu (ie NOT my Internxt account from the Internxt Drive icon), then logging back into my Mac, caused the log cycling bug to recur.

I tried this method because it is a bit quicker than rebooting. In any case it seems pretty clear to me that this bug appears when notifications are turned off AND the menubar icon is clicked. And by turning notifications off, I mean the slider is toggled to the left, not leaving the slider set to on and selecting "none" (vs "banner" or "alert") style notifications beneath the slider.

Finally, after turning notifications back on, logging out of the Mac again and logging back in once again, the logs do cycle correctly.

Hope this detail helps.
