If i transfer a small amount of files and data it works. However when i try to transfer the whole directory it only checks which files it should transfer and then give me an error mesage. The directory structure holds about 400.000 files. I have tried: 2.5.1 (cygwin official version) 2.5.2 (compiled it myself) 2.5.2+patches (compiled it myself) 2.5.3pre1 (compiled it myself) None of those work with larger amounts of files, they give me differnt error message but lately this one (2.5.1): rsync error: received SIGUSR1 or SIGINT (code 20) at rsync.c(229) other messages have been (2.5.2): rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(152). For now Im evaluating robocopy (w2k resource kit). ====================================================Jan?ke R?nnblom SKERIA Utveckling AB (Teknous) Assistentgatan 23 931 77 Skelleftea (Sweden) ----------------------------------------------------- Phone : +46-910-585424 Mobile : 070-3970743 Fax : +46-910-585499 URL : http://skeria.skelleftea.se -----------------------------------------------------
You could be running out of memory; rsync uses a small amount of memory for every file it deals with during a single run. Can you break it up into smaller runs? Often people do each top-level directory separately to avoid this problem. - Dave Dykstra On Mon, Feb 11, 2002 at 10:11:23PM +0100, R?nnblom Jan?ke /Teknous wrote:> >Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2002 14:12:50 -0500 > >From: "Hornyak, Doug" <dhornyak@mlp.com> > > > >Has anybody out there set up a rsync environment that allows mirroring > >of files between two Windows 2000 servers? > > I have tried it with mixed results.

Re(2): Win2K -> Win2K rsync ( SIGUSR1 or SIGINT)

If I watch the process it seems to use only about 30MB of memory. ====================================================Jan?ke R?nnblom SKERIA Utveckling AB (Teknous) Assistentgatan 23 931 77 Skelleftea (Sweden) ----------------------------------------------------- Phone : +46-910-585424 Mobile : 070-3970743 Fax : +46-910-585499 URL : http://skeria.skelleftea.se -----------------------------------------------------
