I use rsync with the following command

Note: it's always better to let rsync do wildcard expansion in such
cases, and -a implies -t already; i.e. use:

/usr/bin/rsync -a rsync.server.domain::dir/ /destination

from the command prompt without any problem but if I use the same rsync
command from cron I get the following error

daemon.warn: May 30 15:18:42 rsyncd[24703]: rsync: connection unexpectedly

daemon.warn: May 30 15:18:42 rsyncd[24703]: rsync error: error in rsync
protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(420)

Could somebody tell me why.

Try adding -v options (often -vv is enough) to show more details.

After a long time debugging with strace I'm ready to give it up.

I get the following in my logfiles
----

But from cron also the following mail

So it looks like he is just working as expected. But why the message in the logfile? I have a strace of with and without invoking from cron and I don't see a difference.

Could somebody tell me what the message in my logfile means?

With kind regards,
