I subscribed to report a bug.
if I rsync a directory from a PC (invoked on the PC) to a unix server through ssh, the first time all works fine, then if I do it again and there are no copys it crashes on the PC. If I touch one file on the PC so it copys at least one file then all is OK. I have the latest cygwin installed on a PC with freshly installed win2000 build 5.00.2195, and the latest version installed from debian "woody" on a server. The debian version: rsync version 2.5.4 protocol version 26 The cygwin version: rsync version 2.5.5 protocol version 26 If I run with -vvv I get the following consistently just before it crashes. >recv_generator(accounts/quickenw/whatsnew.wri,281) >accounts/quickenw/whatsnew.wri is uptodate >recv_generator(accounts/quickenw/~QW~LINK.QDT,282) >accounts/quickenw/~QW~LINK.QDT is uptodate >recv_generator(accounts/~QW~LINK.QDT,283) >accounts/~QW~LINK.QDT is uptodate >generate_files phase=1 >send_files phase=1 >recv_files phase=1 >generate_files phase=2 >send files finished >total: matches=0 tag_hits=0 false_alarms=0 data=0 >recv_generator(accounts,0) >recv_generator(accounts/archive,10) (cursor left here) The crash is "hard" it does not exit but hangs the process, and sometimes corrupts enough that I cant kill the process from windows task manager. If I re-arrange the directory structure it still happens. It always crashes just after displaying the second "recv_generator(dir,num)" entry after the "total:" print. I can work around it by forcing a file copy, but :) Thanks.
