Any advice for an all around newbie.
I have a rsync command that works just fine whenever I have executed it
directly from the command line.
/usr/local/bin/rsync -v -v -v -P --stats -z -r -t -p -l --delete
--password-file=/export/home/webuser/.appprod --exclude "*.htaccess"
/export/home/xternal/htdocs/ webu...@appprod::dprweb_www >
/export/home/webuser/logs/rsync
But when we tried to execute this as a daily cron task, it did not
synchronize the servers. This is all that exists in the log file
created by rsync.
[client] add_rule(- *.htaccess)
[sender] _exit_cleanup(code=1, file=main.c, line=1241): about to call exit(1)
That doesn't tell me much. Anybody else?
That's not the log file, per se. That's the standard output of rsync.
You're not capturing the error output. You might be able to just change
'>' to '>&', but better still would be to specify:
--log-file=/export/home/webuser/logs/rsync
(With no output redirection [omit the '> /filename' portion].)
Then your log file should have more information for diagnosing the
problem.
