Hello,

I'm currently looking at regularly restoring files out of BackupPC to a
central location on our network for some of our users to have as a
reference. I'm going to run this restore on a daily basis to ensure that
the files are up to date.

This seems to work fine for all of our hosts except for one. The first
restore works fine, but any subsequent restores fail right at the end with
this error:

Remote[1]: Invalid remainder length 467096064 [receiver]
exiting after signal PIPE
restore failed: aborted by signal=PIPE

It only happens on this one host, and it only seems to happen at the very
end of the restore. Has anyone seen anything like this before?

The only way I've managed to get around it is by adding --ignore-existing
or --whole-file as extra RsyncRestoreArgs. This would seem to imply to me
that rsync is failing when it tries to compare/overwrite a file on the
receiver, but I'm not really sure.

Thanks,

Andy
