### Failure to log-in
#### Object not found
If you are connecting to your Mega remote for the first time,
to test access and syncronisation, you may receive an error such as
```
Failed to create file system for "my-mega-remote:":
couldn't login: Object (typically, node or user) not found
```
The diagnostic steps often recommended in the [rclone forum](https://forum.rclone.org/search?q=mega)
start with the **MEGAcmd** utility. Note that this refers to
the official C++ command from https://github.com/meganz/MEGAcmd
and not the go language built command from t3rm1n4l/megacmd
that is no longer maintained.
Follow the instructions for installing MEGAcmd and try accessing
your remote as they recommend. You can establish whether or not
you can log in using MEGAcmd, and obtain diagnostic information
to help you, and search or work with others in the forum.
```
MEGA CMD> login me@example.com
Password:
Fetching nodes ...
Loading transfers from local cache
Login complete as me@example.com
me@example.com:/$
```
Note that some have found issues with passwords containing special
characters. If you can not log on with rclone, but MEGAcmd logs on
just fine, then consider changing your password temporarily to
pure alphanumeric characters, in case that helps.
#### Repeated commands blocks access
Mega remotes seem to get blocked (reject logins) under "heavy use".
We haven't worked out the exact blocking rules but it seems to be
related to fast paced, successive rclone commands.
