[EMAIL PROTECTED] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution| |INVALID Summary|crash with large directories|exit status with large | |directories ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2005-11-06 14:18 ------- rsync did not crash -- exit code 23 is how it indicates that some kind of a read error occurred during the reading of the files on the sending system (the error message will probably have scrolled off the screen in a large transfer, so be sure to capture all the output, including stderr). I appreciate the extra detail of the copy commands you used, because it confirmed my suspicion that the extra updates you saw were due to you creating a duplicate set of files in the destination. I.e.: this command: rsync -e ssh -avzl --delete myhost.mydomain.com:/var /backup_disk/root/var actually created a directory /backup_disk/root/var/var. You should either leave off the trailing "var" in the destination, or add a trailing slash in the source to avoid that. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
