OneDrive for Linux do not sync in ntfs partition

I began to use onedrive for Linux available at https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive. I use Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS.

It works fine if onedrive local folder is on an ext4 partition. Nevertheless I want to place onedrive local folder on a NTFS partition that is shared with a Windows 10 installation.

When I put a file in onedrive local folder it is uploaded, but onedrive client cannot write a downloaded file. I receive the message:

ERROR: The local file system returned an error with the following message:
  Error Message:    AtWork/20210528_122301 - PMAP.jpg: Operation not permitted
  Calling Function: downloadFileItem()

I wrote to the maintainer but he said that it is a file system permission issue, not an onedrive issue. Details can be found at https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/discussions/1556

It is important to mention that I first installed the version available in universe repositories, then I moved to the ppa version and finally to the latest github version. The permission issue occurred on all versions.

NTFS filesystem read|write operations are OK. I even set umask to 000 in fstab, but the problem remained the same.

Permissions are the same for all NTFS partition, as user I can read and write, and clients for other cloud storage services such as MEGAsync and Dropbox are working fine.

Has anyone had a similar problem or have any ideas on how to solve the problem? Thanks

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
