Hi! I've noticed that an "rsync -avx . host:/test" tries to descend into a FUSE filesystem (on the origin/sending side). This is at least true when the FUSE is mounted by somebody else. I came accross this while my nightly backup choked on this with "Permission denied" at the mount point. FUSE is a mount subsystem in Linux that enables userspace filesystems. A FUSE

The generator can skip a directory's contents altogether due to --ignore-non-existing, a daemon exclude, or a mkdir failure. On a --dry-run, the generator can also note the missingness of a directory while still scanning its contents. These two scenarios were conflated using a single set of missing_below/missing_dir variables in combination with transient increments in dry_run; this caused

Hello, I've looked through all the postings and can't seem to find an answer to my delema. I have tested this on an XP and win2k box and get the same results. I'm trying to rsync a fairly large directory (approx. 1.6 GB) from a windows machine to a linux box for backup purposes. The process hangs at the same point everytime. When I try to rsync smaller portions of the same large

Hello, I am mirroring the debian tree using rsync. I realised following bug. Version: 2.5.5-0.2 on Debian GNU/Linux. Rsync did not correct old symlinks. # ls -l debian-non-US/dists/ total 60 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 17 2001 Debian2.2r7/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Feb 28 2001 Debian3.0r0/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 10 02:30

Hey guys, I've been working with rsync for the last couple weeks and I really need some help here. Linux to Linux transfers are working beautifully, but for the life of me I can't get transfers from win2k to work. I have the exact problem that was reported by Mark de Jong on Tue, 16 Jul 2002. I'm using the lastest version of cygwin, with rsync 2.5.5 and ssh 3.5p1 for my tests. The

Hi, I am trying to use rsync to migrate homefolders from one server to another. For this I use: > rsync --rsh="ssh -l root" -vaz beaucent.ling.umu.se:/export/home/ . Which works fine until I get to some files where the user has, unfortunatelly, used a non-ascii character in the file name: --- snip -- ...

Hi all. I have a strange issue with sync'ing from a USB-attached ext4 file system on one machine, to a USB-attached ext3 file system on another. The sync works fine (a few thousand files). If I run it again straight away, or a few minutes later, rsync reports no action required. But if I wait for a few hours and run it again it copies all the files again. I'm trying to determine

I've trying to do a backup from a remote host to a local machine via rsync using the following configuration: Remote host (Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES3): $ uname -srmpi Linux 2.4.21-47.EL i686 athlon i386 $ cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 8) $ rsync --version rsync version 2.6.8 protocol version 29 Local machine (Mac OS X 10.4.8, Intel): $

I am getting a handful of these errors, and I am not sure why. The directories in question have rights like this: drw-r--r-- 2 osstbb osstbb 42 2008-05-02 00:04 12981826/ As root, why would it matter if it has executability? I can read it just fine on the server. Or is it an issue when it tries to create it on the -client- ? Is there a way to fix this? I can chmod 0755 the dirs on the server

We're having a problem trying to set up rsync to sync between a couple of sites. This is NetBSD 1.5.1_ALPHA on the remote end (eftp) and 1.4.1 on the local end. The rsync versions appear to be identical, as shown in the output. Here is the full command being used: rsync -r -C --exclude .snapshot -e /usr/pkg/bin/ssh -vvv --delete \ eftp.redback.com:/home/ftp/customers /service/eftp/ And

Hi again all.. When using rsync 3.0 to sync files between 2 local directories, it works as i expect it, but when the destination folder is a mounted smb share, it always copies over the files even though they already exist on the destination. Any ideas on why this is happening? even using the same options, but with a different destination path. I have tried using -vvv, but it doesn't make

Hi, I have a file that changes slightly in size every day and has the timestamp appended to it.. for example on the 14th may: MybackedUpFileBlabla_200905140219.bak This is transferred by rsync to another server. The next day that file is deleted and substituted by a new file on the sender.. the new file would be named for example (15th May): MybackedUpFileBlabla_200905150221.bak The new file

rsync 3.0.0. MacOSX 10.5.1 Server/Intel. Trying to detect files with funny chars in their name, as I cannot find them with "find", I use the error (Illegal byte sequence) given by rsync when the target charset cannot reproduce them. While doing this I have met this error: /usr/local/bin/rsync -an --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync -- iconv=UTF8-MAC,437 /db /tmp/ rsync:

Hi all, I am new to this list. I have a problem trying to mirror a cvs repository. I suspect the error happens when getting a directory containing many files.

I subscribed to report a bug. if I rsync a directory from a PC (invoked on the PC) to a unix server through ssh, the first time all works fine, then if I do it again and there are no copys it crashes on the PC. If I touch one file on the PC so it copys at least one file then all is OK. I have the latest cygwin installed on a PC with freshly installed win2000 build 5.00.2195, and the latest
