You'd get a permission error if that were the issue. (There are scenarios where permissions can produce no-such-file-or-dir, but they are to do with not being able to read things, not not being able to make things.) I just wrote a long message about debugging this, but on reflection I think your --rsync-path command isn't even starting. I believe, because the target directory is a local path, that rsync is trying to make it itself, _before_ running the --rsync-path command for the sync itself. And that fails because it is doing a plain mkdir(), which does not make intermediate paths. To test, run the same command without the --rsync-path and get the same error message. _If_ you're really doing this locally, do the mkdir -p outside rsync, beforehand. However, I suspect you intend to make this remote soon, otherwise why bother with --rsync-path at all? So to test that (but using the local system as a proxy for your final target), make the final target "localhost:/home/.....". That should cause rysnc to require the --rsync-path command string as part of the process, so it will run without trying to make the directory.
