Hi anybody!

I'm not shure if this really is a rsync problem, it might also be a shell issue. But hopefully, someone has a hint for me ;-)

I'm using rsync 3.0.9 on two OS X Servers (FreeBSD) to synchronize several folders between both servers (2-way-sync). Works fine, with one exception: One of the directories to be sync'd contains a whitespace in its pathname, and this one only works in one direction and fails in the other.


Here's the first one (it's all on one line):

rsync "/Volumes/PromiseRAID/Satz/Akzidenzen 2012/" "root@192.168.101.53:/Volumes/WD-Daten/XserveMirror/Satz/Akzidenzen 2012" 2>&1

This one works fine, no problems so far.


And now, the other way round:

rsync "root@192.168.101.53:/Volumes/WD-Daten/XserveMirror/Satz/Akzidenzen 2012/" "/Volumes/PromiseRAID/Satz/Akzidenzen 2012" 2>&1

This one throws the following errors:

rsync: link_stat "/Volumes/WD-Daten/XserveMirror/Satz/Akzidenzen" failed: No such file or directory (2) rsync: change_dir "/private/var/root//2012" failed: No such file or directory (2) rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1588) [Receiver=3.0.9]


Both pathes are correct and I could hunt the problem down to the space character between "Akzidenzen" and "2012". I tried to escape it with "\ " and also tried omitting the quotes around the path, but the only thing that happened was, that the formerly working command failed and the broken one suddenly worked ok. Strange :-/

But somehow, both directions ought to work, and I'm stuck here...

BTW: For better readability, I removed the rsync-options in the lines above. They are: -naxuNXzh --timeout=1800 --fileflags --partial-dir=.rsync-partial --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync --stats.

Maybe someone can help...

Thanks!



Achim
