Hi guys,
thank you for the feedback!
After trying almost any possible combination, I finally found one that
works ;-)
Here it is (in short):
rsync "/Hello World" "user@host:/Hello World"
rsync "user@host:/Hello\ World" "/Hello World"
Only the (remote) SOURCE in the second line needed the backslash in
addition to the quotes. The same path used as DESTINATION (first line)
MUST NOT be escaped, as this would also cause the error.
I have no explanation for that, it looks completely weird to me.
Maybe, someone has an idea... But at least, it's working now.
Kind regards
Achim

This looks like a shell issue to me.
Try
rsync "root@192.168.101.53:/Volumes/WD-Daten/XserveMirror/Satz/Akzidenzen\ 2012/"
"/Volumes/PromiseRAID/Satz/Akzidenzen 2012" 2>&1
And
rsync "root@192.168.101.53:'/Volumes/WD-Daten/XserveMirror/Satz/Akzidenzen 2012/'"
"/Volumes/PromiseRAID/Satz/Akzidenzen 2012" 2>&1
When the path is being sent to the remote system there needs to be something
telling the remote system that the blank is part of the file name.

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
