'error in rsync protocol data stream' - Tim Conway

Tim,
I reported a protocol data stream error on 9/8/2002
Deatils are in my postes at that time
rsync still fails everytime I run it.

This time I added three v's as you just suggested and rsync just hung with
two tasks in execution thus:
root      3178  0.1  0.9  1796  868 pts/1    S    09:57   0:00
/usr/bin/rsync -vvva --delete --exclude=root/snapsh
root      3179  0.0  0.6  1628  632 pts/1    S    09:57   0:00
/usr/bin/rsync -vvva --delete --exclude=root/snapsh

and the last data rsync put out was:
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_b1.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_default.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_hardware.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_hisax.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_icn.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_ignore.templ)
-----------then hangs---------------------

Any ideas?
Last time I was told to upgrade my hardware and OS.
I run a solid, scrupulously updated, SuSE 7.3 system on reliable P-II/400
hardware

'error in rsync protocol data stream' - Tim Conway

Tim,
I just got the hung rsync window to respond to a Control-C and it put out
the following text (including a few of those make files that were just
before it hung..

make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_default.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_hardware.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_hisax.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_icn.templ)
make_file(4,var/adm/fillup-templates/i4l_ignore.templ)
rsync error: received SIGUSR1 or SIGINT (code 20) at rsync.c(229)
_exit_cleanup(code=20, file=rsync.c, line=229): about to call exit(20)
rsync: error writing 70 unbuffered bytes - exiting: Broken pipe
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(463)
_exit_cleanup(code=12, file=io.c, line=463): about to call exit(12)

'error in rsync protocol data stream' - Tim Conway

I'm sure your system is fine.  What about the rsync, though?  If it's 
still 2.4.6, you're not getting anywhere.  Get the source from 
http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync-2.5.5.tar.gz
untargz it somewhere, and in the directory it creates, which will be named 
"rsync-2.5.5", type "./configure ; make ; make install"
On a properly-configured Linux system, those three commands should all run 
successfully to completion, leaving you with the rsync binary as 
/usr/local/bin/rsync, and the man pages distributed among /usr/local/man. 
If your existing version is in /usr/bin or something, and you want to 
override it, add "--prefix=/usr" or whatever, to redirect the install.
It's that easy.
If you want to leave off the installation stuff, you can, because the 
binary is fully static and relocatable.
I can't guarantee that this will solve your problems.  Sometimes, 
individual problems can be fixed only by the individual involved.  In my 
application, I finally had to write a custom app, completely abandoning 
rsync, because of the limitations of the platforms I'm required to use.  I 
still use rsync a lot, but as just another tool, like tar, cp, rsh, 
whatever.

Good luck.
