I have Hazel running on my Mac with rules set for a Linux volume on my network. It runs well except for the Last Matched info seems to get lost when I reboot the Linux box. So it is digging into folders and trying to move files into that same folder.. Any ideas on how I can fix this. My Hazel log is full of the "destination is the same as source" errors. Thanks for any help.

That's odd since last matched is not stored with the destination folder. I'm wondering if the linux volume doesn't provide a stable unique identifier to macOS, thus making Hazel think that the destination is a new volume. Can you provide an excerpt from the logs?

I added a parameter so Hazel will ignore any file not created in the last 2 minutes. That solved my problem of reprocessing attempts.
