Package: rsync
Version: 2.6.3-2
Severity: important
Transfering (push) big files (700M) from a Debian unstable box to a Mandrake
9.2 box.
Not sure if the connection is sufficiently stable, because I get the following
errors:
Read from remote host xxxxx.dyndns.org: Connection timed out
rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 182 bytes: phase "unknown" [sender]:
Broken pipe (32)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (24 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(359)
The partial files are lost, which is a big pain because I've sometimes crashed
while I had 90% of a file
transmitted. Have to start from scratch every time.
Note: I've just discovered the --pĂartial option and I am going to use it for
now.
I have 5 files to transmit, I've been trying for 2 days, but for now, I have
not been able to transmit a single
file. Given our connection speeds, the process should take around 5-6 hours per
file.
On my side:
rsync version 2.6.3 protocol version 28
On the other:
rsync version 2.5.7 protocol version 26
command used:
rsync -avz --progress --delete .......
Could be an incompatibility between the versions. I plan to upgrade the box on
the other side. As soon as I
managed to transfer the ISOs :)
Hoping the --partial will help me get out of this catch 22 situation...

As there's been silence for more than 2 years, and numerous rsync bug
fixes since then, I'm closing this bug now. Feel free to open a new bug
on the current version if you're still experiencing problems.
