Hi.
I found out that having quote characters in DOS Path variable around
directories which are listed before cygwin/bin path can confuse rsync
so that it's unable to find ssh executable.
In my example when Path is set as:
Path="C:\WINDOWS\system32";C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\cygwin\bin;C:\cygwin\usr\bin;C:\Program
Files\Executive Software\Diskeeper\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\Tools\Binn\;C:\Program Files\UltraEdit;C:\Program Files\ATI
Technologies\ATI.ACE\;c:\davor\bin;C:\Program Files\SecureCRT 3.0
executing rsync gives error:
C:\> rsync -avz -e ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/somefile.txt
rsync: Failed to exec ssh: No such file or directory (2)
rsync error: error in IPC code (code 14) at
/home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.6
/pipe.c(83)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [receiver]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at
/home/lapo/packagi
ng/tmp/rsync-2.6.6/io.c(434)
Removing quote characters from path:
Path=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\cygwin\bin;C:\cygwin\usr\bin;C:\Program
Files\Executive Software\Diskeeper\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\Tools\Binn\;C:\Program Files\UltraEdit;C:\Program Files\ATI
Technologies\ATI.ACE\;c:\davor\bin;C:\Program Files\SecureCRT 3.0
... and rsync+ssh works ok.
I'm assuming having quotes in Path is normal and acceptable behavior
since, for instance, installation of DirectX SDK is putting its
executable directory with spaces and quotes in front of all the other
Path directories, which then in turn brakes rsync+ssh (this is how I
found out about this issue), but is not a problem for regular Win32 programs.
I am not sure if other cygwin executables are affected by this problem.
"cygcheck.out" output attached below.
Also verified this is still an issue with the most recent packages on
another system I don't have cygcheck output from right now.
Davor.
