Rules match test applies but files are not copied from a mounted NAS folder to designated folder on the mac (Sequoia) where Hazel is installed. Hazel has full drive access. Show in finder shows folders. Any idea why this won't compute?

Hi Mr. Noodle, activated the debug mode but can't read much out of it.

Hmm there are two rulesets for that folder to process. To me it looks like the second rule is just not executed. One rule copies the files to the Mac on an external drive the second should copy the same to the internal drive. The external drive has the files as it should, the internal drive folder is empty.
Can I upload an image here?

There is no indication in the debug logs Hazel even tries to copy files for the second rule.

Moved the rule up to the first place to see what happens.

Yes works if it's in first place! There seems to be a bug for the execution of the second rule!

Look at the rule status. It is probably only matching one file because that is how it normally works. If you want a file to match multiple rules, you need to add a "Continue" action on any previous rule it matches.

Oh, I thought all rules are executed that are made for a folder. Will check that asap. Thank you.

OK so the last line is now "continue matching rules" in the first script. Now it Should run both rules on the folders files?
