Any ideas on where to check next?Those were warnings, not errors. Try cvs. We have refactored the tempfile code which is what is impacted by these limits. -- ________________________________________________________________ J.W.

Rsync 2.5.6 has a problem with pathnames or filenames longer than 255. I redefined them in rsync.h, which generated errors on make pointing to the previous definitions which look fine. Any ideas on where to check next? Here's the error I got trying to rsync: receiving file list ... done media/zip.backup.2003-06-03.1415/windows.backup.2003-06-03.1415/oracle.backup.2003-06-03.1415/Dev6i.backup.2003-06-03.1415/win32.backup.2003-06-03.1415/d2dh.backup.2003-06-03.1415/6_0_8_11_4.backup.2003-06-03.1415/doc.backup.2003-06-03.1415/ media/zip.backup.2003-06-03.1415/windows.backup.2003-06-03.1415/oracle.backup.2003-06-03.1415/Dev6i.backup.2003-06-03.1415/win32.backup.2003-06-03.1415/d2dh.backup.2003-06-03.1415/6_0_8_11_4.backup.2003-06-03.1415/doc.backup.2003-06-03.1415/d2ky2kwp4.pdf.backup.2003-06-03.1415 write failed on media/zip.backup.2003-06-03.1415/windows.backup.2003-06-03.1415/oracle.backup.2003-06-03.1415/Dev6i.backup.2003-06-03.1415/win32.backup.2003-06-03.1415/d2dh.backup.2003-06-03.1415/6_0_8_11_4.backup.2003-06-03.1415/doc.backup.2003-06-03.1415/d2ky2kwp4.pdf.backup.2003-06-03.1415 : Success rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at receiver.c(243) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (5844537 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(165) Here's what make produced after redefining the constants: [root@festiva rsync-2.5.6]# make gcc -I. -I. -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Wall -W -c rsync.c -o rsync.o In file included from rsync.c:23: rsync.h:325: warning: `PATH_MAX' redefined /usr/include/linux/limits.h:14: warning: this is the location of the previous definition rsync.h:326: warning: `MAXPATHLEN' redefined /usr/include/sys/param.h:35: warning: this is the location of the previous definition And checking for the previous values of PATH_MAX and MAXPATHLEN I found: ***/usr/include/linux/limits.h*** #define NAME_MAX 255 /* # chars in a file name */ #define PATH_MAX 4095 /* # chars in a path name */ ***/usr/include/sys/param.h*** #define MAXPATHLEN PATH_MAX Thanks!
