strange rsync error message from our backup script
Hello, I use rsync for incrmental backups in the following way: rsync \ $EXCLUDE \ -e ssh \ --archive \ --numeric-ids \ --compress \ --relative \ --one-file-system \ --cvs-exclude \ --delete \ --delete-excluded \ --bwlimit=0 \ --backup \ --suffix='' \ --backup-dir=$BACKUP_ROOT/$BACKUP_HOST/${TODAY} \ $BACKUP_HOST_AND_PATH ${DESTINATION}$BACKUP_ROOT/$BACKUP_HOST/current It used to work fine but since I've upgraded to 2.6.2 from 2.5.x I get the following error messages: make_bak_dir mkdir "/backup/naxos.premier-lnc.com/2004-06-09/home/ddegrolard/profile/Local Settings/Application Data" failed: File exists make_bak_dir mkdir "/backup/naxos.premier-lnc.com/2004-06-09/home/ddegrolard/profile/Local Settings" failed: File exists make_bak_dir mkdir "/backup/naxos.premier-lnc.com/2004-06-09/home/ddegrolard/profile" failed: File exists The backup operation itself doesn't seem to be affected but I am wondering why these messages appear. Thanks in advance for you insight, -- "I never forget a face, but in your case I'll make an exception." -- Groucho Marx ~

If you click on the "search the bugzilla database" link on the bug-tracking page: http://rsync.samba.org/bugzilla.html you'll see it as one of the RESOLVED FIXED bugs that will be in the next release. ..wayne..
