--- Comment #2 from Toralf Förster <[email protected]> 2011-09-12 16:45:32 UTC --- Ah - now the pciture becomes clear - I changed my script few days ago to use relative paths - which doesn't work: When I specify : target dir: /mnt/media/daily/a ref dir: ../../daily/f it doesn't work, however this works : target dir: /mnt/media/daily/a ref dir: /mnt/media/daily/f OTOH the relative path itself is ok : n22 ~ # ls -ld /mnt/media/daily/a drwxr-xr-x 17 root root 4096 Aug 12 18:28 /mnt/media/daily/a n22 ~ # ls -ld /mnt/media/daily/a/../../daily/f drwxr-xr-x 17 root root 4096 Sep 12 17:22 /mnt/media/daily/a/../../daily/f which let me thinkig, that rsync appends the relative path to <dest> in this way (which is not intended, but I cannot specify an additional slash "/" - then it would be an absolute path) : n22 ~ # ls -ld /mnt/media/daily/a../../daily/f ls: cannot access /mnt/media/daily/a../../daily/f: No such file or directory -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
