"No such files or directory"Errors on import

Help
1

since last time i updated Beets i get this error constantly now: Error: No such file or directory while moving /Volumes/Musik/dupes/02 Glósóli (2).mp3 to /Volumes/music/CleanBeet/Non-Album/Sigur Ros/Glosoli [160kbps].1.mp3"

then when I look at source/destination I either find out beets already moved it or it’s still there but gives me this error anyways?

I’m trying to import ALL my collection without tagging them to then do some more tag cleaning and stuff.

but at that rythm it’s going to take me forever.
heres my config.yaml if anyone have a clue or cues to help me get through this endless process… been at it for 3 years now:

Hello! Any chance you could provide more details about exactly what command you’re running and in what context? While files are you importing? Which files are already in your library (beet ls -p)? Etc.

I was getting this error on randomply, while importing from a nas from NFS mounted drives , i have figured out that NFS was the problem. i do not know exactly why it was not seeing the folders that were actually there most of the time… but since then i went back to using afp or smb only and it seems to have resolved the issue.

I have had help from a friend I am using a completely different config file now, so far so good, first time in 5 years ac tually that the imports are running “smoothly” without to many errrors… it’s a first… i’m so happy!

got a lot of work to do but at least it’s going somewhere… after 5 years was about time!
