Hi there,
I'm running rsync on an nslu2 (using nslu2-linux) and it keeps failing
with return code 13. The man page doesn't give a good description of
what this means ("Errors with program diagnostics") so could someone
give me a clue. as to what diagnostics rsync is running and reasons why
they might be failing? The only magic to note is the machine only has
32MB of ram so low memory may be a problem (but I'd expect to see error
22 instead).
Thanks
Paul

The important bit is the error message that preceeds it. If there is none, you're probably using an older rsync daemon that omits the error message from the client's output, so consult the daemon's log file for the error. ..wayne..
Hi Wayne, Thanks - I've enabled logging in my daemons (it's disabled by default) so hopefully whatever the error is will appear in there shortly.

It's a local copy so the daemon log isn't showing anything other than: 2005/01/23 11:43:53 [606] rsyncd version 2.6.3 starting, listening on port 873 I've asked the rsnapshot team how to turn on more diagnostics; it's not capturing the output of -vvv anywhere.

The cron supplied with the NSLU2 doesn't support running rsync (via rsnapshot & perl) directly; if I add a bash layer in then I don't get error 13s any more. For those with NSLU2's who are interested see: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/EnableLoggingInCron Regards Paul -----Original Message----- From: Hargreaves, Paul Sent: 23 January 2005 15:30 To: 'Wayne Davison' Cc: rsync@lists.samba.org Subject: RE: rsync failing with return code 13 It's a local copy so the daemon log isn't showing anything other than: 2005/01/23 11:43:53 [606] rsyncd version 2.6.3 starting, listening on port 873 I've asked the rsnapshot team how to turn on more diagnostics; it's not capturing the output of -vvv anywhere.
