I'm having an issue at the moment with Linux + Chromium (Version 37.0.2062.120 Built on Debian 7.6, running on Debian Kali Linux 1.0.9 (281580) (64-bit) + Xmarks.
It has been working fine in Windows, but in my Linux box it doesn't seem to work. I've not used it on Linux before, so I don't know if it ever worked or what has changed (only just installed it). The interesting thing is that it read from the server (did the initial sync) just fine. But so I've added a few bookmarks and then saw the status icon indicating there was an error.
The error is: bookmarks error: Error during sync changes: Invalid response object: {"status":-5,"errormsg":"Server 503 delay"},
When I went through to check the logs, I noticed 2 errors (and I am unsure if they are related)
This one:
[1/31/2015 5:34:41] >>> POST https://sync.xmarks.com/sync/bookmarks/getchanges xmarks-global.js:12
[1/31/2015 5:34:41] >>> Body is: {"baserev":"1098","manual":true,"log":{"mid":"i5j4pjm8"}} xmarks-global.js:12

and this one:

(obviously that's not my real auth hash nor usernames.
Now the strange thing is that it seems to download fine but it is uploading that has the prolblem. I did another full download from server, it comes good.
Then I add a new bookmark and it refuses to sync upstream.
I find it very interesting that it says ""status":503,"message":"User is read-only","auth":"DEADBEEFxxxx" and Server 503 delay.
Meanwhile, the user is definitely not read-only because amid all this I test on Windows + Chrome and it works fine.
Anyone else seen/experienced this or know what could be causing it?
Thanks
