Hi, I am getting "rsync warning: some files vanished before they could be transferred (code 24) at main.c(1039) [sender=3.0.6]" now frequently but while using rsync version 2.6, I used to get it rarely.

But now I need to run rsync as daemon(server), trying to find /etc/rsyncd.conf file but there is no rsyncd.conf file exists under /etc directory.

Hi I would like to ask, when the "vanished files" warning is a sign that something bad is happening somewhere. I know that the `rsync-no-vanished` script can silence the warning, but I am wondering whether this is a sane thing to do. My guess based on https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3653#c26 and https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10356 is that it's fine, but

Hi Everyone, The following request was received from a Debian user; could you comment on it? I think this seems reasonable, although the cron output can be fixed by writing to a temporary file and using grep -v. (The temporary file is necessary to avoid discarding the exit code, although that may not be needed in the case of rsync, since it writes that to stderr). On Mon, Feb 20, 2006 at

I run an rsync to backup my mail server ever 4 hours.

I've been seeing the following wonky behavior with Dovecot. Currently this is with Dovecot 2.0.19, but I was also seeing it in earlier versions as well, including versions from the 1.x series. Some background, this is from Horde's ActiveSync library, when it is trying to determine what UIDs have recently been expunged. I can guarantee that when this command was sent, there was

Hi Rsync/Samba team, First of all, cudos on rsync 2.6.6! It is running exceptionally well. I'm using a script executed by cron to keep warm-backup servers in sync with the primary server. The execution is set to run every 5 minutes. Like any good programmer, this process is *very* paranoid and uses 'wall' to notify the users if any error occurs during the transmissions. This is

Hi What should be the right exit code for vanished file in this scenario. (1) Use inotify or other mechanism to check changed files and then generate a file list. (2) < file get deleted> (3) run rsync with --files-from with the old list. then send_file_list()->link_stat() will return errno 2 on some files and then set exit code to 23. but shall rsync return 24? -- Ming Zhang

Hi gang. I am running cwRsync on Windows XP systems and synching to a FreeBSD server. One user uses unicode because he needs Chinese characters. During a synchronization I get many "file has vanished" messages; the filename contains question marks. Is there any way to deal with this?

Please help : Strange 'file has vanished' behaviour with rsync on windows. I need to run rsync on windows and sync shares thru UNC names. When I try : rsync -e ssh -av //mypc1/myshare1/dir1/* //mypc1/myshare1/dir2/. rsync does a copy but says "file has vanished" for every file.

Hi, I'm using dovecot for some time now. Previously I was using Courier and I've migrated this setup to dovecot which went pretty fine. Now I'm experiencing some strange behaviour when using some newer mail clients. Some of my Folders, like "spam", are vanished. The strange point is that it only happens in some clients, like Thunderbird 2.x+ or KMail 3.5.x. In others,

Hey, I've been trying to transfer about 90GB from one Server to another using rsync. But rsync stops randomly. I use the bash script provided in a bug report, to block errors about vanished files!
