What should be the official behaviour here? I must admit some of my scripts probably have both trailing and non-trailing "/". But just played around until it was mirroring into the correct directory.

Good afternoon all, I'm currently working on a backup script that will fetch a set of logs from remote machines and store them on a central machine. The command I'm using is of the form ${RSYNC} -avz root@${site}:/data/access_* ${LOG_REPOSITORY}/${site}/ Each site usually holds about 8 files with the prefix "access_". Some machines however only have one, and this is where my

Hello, I am noticing inconsistencies when using a trailing slash on the source directories in conjunction with the '--delete' option. In one instance when using a trailing slash files get deleted from subdirectories in the destination tree. In the other instance they don't. I am using rsync 2.5.5. The following are the scenarios: Scenario 1 ---------- *nix(src) ---> *nix(dest)

Hello, This is a feature request for a command-line option to disable special interpretation of trailing slashes on source directories. I have been using rsync for a couple of years now (what an awesome program!) and the meaning of the trailing slash on a source is always the one aspect of its syntax that slows me down and makes me check and re-check the manual to ensure that I have remembered

I'm trying to rsync a folder like so - rsync -aP --delete /home/share_20110801 /lastbackup/ share Under the /lastbackup folder there is a "share" folder. I'd like to rsync all the contents of the "share _20110801" folder directly under the the "share" folder under /lastbackup. I know I can add the trailing slash to the source directory to accomplish this,

A trailing slash on a module name has no effect, which is on the one hand logical as it's not a directory name; on the other hand it's not consistent either (as experienced by a user). I suggest at least adding some comment to the manpage where trailing slashes are discussed. Perhaps also mention it in the rsyncd.conf manpage, where perhaps it may be noticed sooner. If I find the time

Hello List, i use Dovecot 1.0.7 for pop and imap on Suse Linux 10.1. I need a little help in understanding something.

Hi there, I have been browsing the mailing list archives in search of a solution to my problem, related to the quite infamous "trailing slash" issue with Thunderbird, but I don't seem to have found any closely related discussion. Please forgive me if this problem has already found a solution. Here I go; We use a lot of TB clients (2.x and 3.x), and we are using Dovecot 1.2.4

Hi, I''ve been trying to deploy a simple Rails app for a friend on a shared hosting account. I was able to get the Rails application running, but the URL need to end in a slash or else it would result in a 400 Bad Request error. After searching through the Rails I wiki found a page on the exact same error (http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/Non +VHost+Installation, it''s

hi, I am trying to rsync a very large filesystem which is about 3TB, but naturally I want to exclude a lot of things. However, I am really struggling with excluding directories.

Hi all, I am running Ubuntu server 10.04 and use rsync to do all my backups. I would like to backup multiple directories to my external hard drive, but I am faced with a problem on how to set up crontab -e to allow each rsync statement to perform one after the other. Right now I have each one set to run on different nights, but I would like them all to run the same night to allow for a more

One of my pet peeves with rsync is that I too often end up writing 1. rsync a/ h: when I meant 2. rsync a h: This is because my shell leaves the trailing slash when I complete directories. I'm not going to reconfigure my shell just for rsync - besides, I like the trailing slash as a visual indicator that something is a directory. But cleaning up from accidental invocation of #1 is a real

I am running latest rsync version 2.6.8 on both ends. The receiver is a daemon. When I transfer a symbolic link like this: /tmp/rsync -av /opt/iat/IaT3.1.1/bin/* uxgary::root/opt/iat/IaT3.1/bin building file list ... done compile_plan.py -> ../python/compile_plan.py iat_status -> ../python/iat_status.py load_iat_xml.py -> ../python/load_iat_xml.py show_engine.py ->

When you rsync a directory, say `$rsync mydir/ ...` with the trailing slash, the destination directory is changed to the ownership, permissions and timestamp of `mydir`. Consider this simple example $ mkdir test $ cd test $ mkdir a b $ touch -d '01 jan 1980' a/A $ touch -d '15 jun 1985' a $ touch -d '02 feb 1990' b/B $ touch -d '25 aug

Hello, I''m using Lighttpd and I am having problems with links like this: http://mydomain.com/controller If I do not add the trailing slash it downloads the dispatch,fcgi as a file.

I have a script that checks files out of PVCS into a temp directory (possibly with nested directories) and copies the contents of the temp directory to multiple servers. I want to retain the permissions on the individual files (which are retained in source control) but leave the permissions on the destination directories as they are. The temp directory and it's subdirectories get the default
