Hi, all. I'm new to rsync so please bear with me...
I'm trying to back-up to a remote host (rsync locally works fine) & keep getting the below error messages. If I mount the remote host on my OS X box (I'm attempting to back-up my Debian boxes) the operation flows smoothly. I've upgraded my rsync version to the same as the remote host, chmod'd the permissions on the remote to 777 (I've changed them back when it didn't succeed), Googled 'til my eyes started bleeding & emailed the vendor numerous times who has tried his best but to no avail. I'm obviously doing something dumb but for the life of me I can't figure it out. Any help appreciated. Cheers, Phil... $ rsync -zav /home/phildobbin/ phildob...@storage1.datastorageunit.com:/thinkcentre/ phildob...@storage1.datastorageunit.com's password: sending incremental file list rsync: mkdir "/thinkcentre" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at main.c(595) [Receiver=3.0.7] rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (9 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(601) [sender=3.0.7] [Thu Dec 22 15:00:24 phildobbin@debian:~ ] $ rsync -zav /home/phildobbin phildob...@storage1.datastorageunit.com:/ phildob...@storage1.datastorageunit.com's password: sending incremental file list phildobbin/ rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "/phildobbin" failed: Permission denied (13) *** Skipping any contents from this failed directory *** ^Crsync error: unexplained error (code 130) at rsync.c(543) [sender=3.0.7] -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
