Hi, I'm using rsync 2.6.8 to backup files and encountered the following problem: rsync -zvvxa --partial --no-whole-file --stats --progress ../new/access_log.processed . building file list ... 1 file to consider delta-transmission enabled access_log.processed rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 16385 bytes [sender]: Broken pipe (32) inflate (token) returned -5 rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at token.c(478) [receiver=2.6.8] rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (51 bytes received so far) [generator] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(465) [generator=2.6.8] rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (229812 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(465) [sender=2.6.8] I have copies of the before and after for the problematic file but it is rather large:: 42987081 Mar 16 13:21 rsync-problematic.tar.bz2 Let me know if you'd like those and I'll figure out how to get them to you. If you have a later version of rsync that you think takes care of the error, I can try using that instead. -Toshio -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
