similar to: rsync 2.5.5, HPUX, getting unexplained error at main.c(578)

Hello, I like to use rsync to transfer over mine and other peoples ever changing mail folder onto a remote server. My Server (FreeBSD 5.4) RSYNC Version is: 2.6.6 Protocol Version 29 My Client (OSX 10.4.2) RSYNC Version is: 2.6.3 Protocol Version 28 I use this command rsync -vvv --progress --stats --recursive --times \ --perms --links \ --delete /test/my?email?folder/*

I believe I have found the cause of the unexplained error (code ??) at main.c(line #). In the version I'm running 2.5.2 (obtained from the Free Software Foundation) the line number is 576. It appears the root cause is related to a race condition associated with the termination of child processes. If the signal handler for SIGCHILD is executed, as the result of a child termination, before the

Hi. We sometimes/often get such errors. It occures in main.c/client_run(). I investigated further and found, that the waitpid() in main.c/wait_process() exits with -1, errno = ECHILD, which means "No children". *status can contain garbage in such cases - but not always. It happens under Solaris-2.5.1/SPARC. It (ECHILD) also happens on other Solaris versions - but there *status seems to

To Whom It May Concern: Below is a patch, that I have used to eliminate the unexplained errors in the rsync program. I was able to trace the problem to the order in which the sigchld_handler and wait_process routines were executed. If sigchld_handler executes first it retrieves the status that wait_process needs to indicate proper rsync termination. The code below allows the sigchld_handler to

I am running rsync ver 2.5.5 on HP-UX 11.0. Whenever I run an rsync specifying the "o" or "g" option to maintain owner or group info, I get an error similar to the one below. The actual error code changes every time, but it's always the same main.c line number. The error message does not occur if I remove the o and g options. rsync error: unexplained error (code 184) at

Hi, I just replaced Slackware64 14.1 running on my office's HP Proliant Microserver with a fresh installation of CentOS 7. The server has 4 x 250 GB disks. Every disk is configured like this : * 200 MB /dev/sdX1 for /boot * 4 GB /dev/sdX2 for swap * 248 GB /dev/sdX3 for / There are supposed to be no spare devices. /boot and swap are all supposed to be assembled in RAID level 1 across

Everything worked, files transferred fine however a -vvv reveals that the process did not end clean. The error is not seen with -v or even -vv.

Hello, I wonder if has seen a problem of the sorts I am describing as at the moment it is driving me nuts. We have an array of LSI disks (Hardware Raid 5) which are attached to a Linux node. The Node has a LSI929 dual fibre channel card that has a channel attached to controller A and B of the array. So we have a list of devices under /proc/partitions mapping what we are expecting to see

I'm trying to use rsync (2.5.6 on both sides) to copy a home directory from one system (Solaris 2.6) to another (Solaris 9); the command is running on the Sol9 version and is fetching files; I'm using rsync with SSH, rather than in client/server mode. The command line I've used is: rsync --archive --verbose --rsh=ssh rsr@fold:/home/rsr /home I've attempted this both as the rsr

Hi Niki, md127 apparently only uses 81.95GB per disk. Maybe one of the partitions has the wrong size. What's the output of lsblk?
