Bug ID: 11075 Summary: Shouldn't --inplace fail immediately if it can't make files? Product: rsync Version: 3.1.0 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 Component: core Assignee: way...@samba.org Reporter: rlpow...@digitalkingdom.org QA Contact: rsync...@samba.org 20GiB file transfer with --inplace fails, consistently, *after* the transfer is complete: rlpowell@ip-10-0-1-16> rsync -aPv --inplace ~/scratch/acs_dump_70_immuneatlas.acs 10.0.11.249:/data/cytobank/acs_dump_70_immuneatlas.acs sending incremental file list acs_dump_70_immuneatlas.acs 20,465,505,293 100% 60.10MB/s 0:05:24 (xfr#1, to-chk=0/1) rsync: open "/data/cytobank/acs_dump_70_immuneatlas.acs" failed: Permission denied (13) sent 20,470,501,873 bytes received 127 bytes 62,889,407.07 bytes/sec total size is 20,465,505,293 speedup is 1.00 rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1165) [sender=3.1.0] rlpowell@ip-10-0-1-16> The file it's saying it can't open doesn't exist at all, and rsync can't, in fact, create a file there. So what was it doing for that 5 minutes? Where did the 20GiB of data *go*? I would expect --inplace to immediately try to make the file, and immediately fail. -- 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.
