Exception ... "Reconciliation unimplemented for attachment items"

rec
I get this error when trying to sync from the machine that has my zotero collections on it:

[JavaScript Error: "[Exception... "'Reconciliation unimplemented for attachment items' when calling method: [nsIDOMEventListener::handleEvent]" nsresult: "0x8057001e (NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING)" location: "<unknown>" data: no]"]

My machine which has no zotero collections on it doesn't get anything, ie it syncs successfully and has nothing on it but the zotero user manual before and after it syncs.

Does this mean that all my data is attachments, or that zotero is not sync'ing anything because it found an attachment somewhere in my collections?

But why is it finding a reconciliation problem against an essentially empty database?

Oh, and what does "reconciliation" mean? The known issues page says that "conflict resolution" is unimplemented for attachments. Are "reconciliation" and "conflict resolution" the same or different?

    The same.

    It may be an issue with the Quick Start Guide. Remove the Quick Start Guide from the empty side and select Clear Server Data from the Actions menu on both sides. The side with data should then sync everything up to the server, and syncing from the other side should pull it.

    Thank you, that worked perfectly.
