I have setup a Google Compute Engine (GCE) instance and I want to mount a Google Cloud Bucket to it. Basically, I have uploaded my data to Google Cloud and I want to make it available for use in the R Studio-server I have installed in my instance. It seems my mounting was successful, but I cannot see the data on R (or in the shell).

I want the bucket to be mounted in /home/roberto/remote. I have run chmod 777 /home/roberto/remote and then gcsfuse my-project /home/roberto/remote. I got the following output:

2023/01/28 22:49:01.004683 Start gcsfuse/0.41.12 (Go version go1.18.4) for app "" using mount point: /home/roberto/remote
2023/01/28 22:49:01.022553 Opening GCS connection...
2023/01/28 22:49:01.172583 Mounting file system "my-project"...
2023/01/28 22:49:01.176837 File system has been successfully mounted.

However, I can't see anything inside /home/roberto/remote when I run ls or when I look inside of it from R Studio-server (see image below). What should I do?

UPDATE: I had uploaded my folders to google cloud, but when I uploaded an individual file, it suddenly showed up! This makes me think the issue has something to do with

Try running gcsfuse mount command with debug flags which will help in knowing why the mount failed. Eg: gcsfuse --implicit-dirs --debug_fuse --debug_gcs --debug_http my-project /home/roberto/remote
